@ Sabretooth - thank you for the confirmation of the security setting.
@ jmizoguchi - thanks for the process description. I am running XP, but it looks pretty similar.
I get as far as the 2 minute status bar, which completes to 100%, then gives me the LAN not seated correctly message. Not to miss the obvious, I did make sure that the LAN cable was positioned properly.
I intermittently get the message advising me to try again with the WNCE2001 closer to the router - each time it has been within inches of the router already. This is when I try to install it from my desktop.
When I put the WNCE2001 into my laptop to try from there I turn the wireless connectivity to 'off' as described in the set up info. Then plug in the WNCE2001 (LAN and USB Power), but unlike the desktop I cannot connect to mywifiext.com at all. It keeps giving me the message that the page cannot be displayed.
Thanks, I appreciate the support very much. From the reviews I have read I thought that this would be a 5 minute setup... I must have spent 4 hours on this by now :(
