Hello,
I am a little embarrassed to ask this question here, but I need the wifi connection!
There is a cafe nearby where I am currently staying which offers a wifi network. I go to the cafe every day, but also use the wifi from my room as I can get the signal there too. Mainly in the evening/night when the cafe is closed but the wifi is still available. It's been fine for the last week but last night I did some software updates which look like they were bigger than expected and today the network is no longer available on my list of available networks.
I puzzled over this for a while then opened my other laptop and there it was, still. So I'm guessing/assuming, that one of my laptops has been locked out/banned/hidden from the network - possibly for the downloading overnight? I really don't know, ,maybe it's just a coincidence, but I'm guessing that must be it.
Since I can still access the network from my 2nd laptop, I'm guessing it's some sort of 'ID' thing - but I don't know much about this. Could someone please tell me how I can change the 'ID' of my laptop so I can reconnect to this wifi network?
As I say, I am sorry to ask, but I need the connection do to some evening work and I'm only here temporarily on a contract so I cannot get my own connection.
Thanks.
