If you are using wireless to connect, you need the radio ON. Not sure about your power save setting, as you have not given details of the make/model.
If using wireless make sure that you have set up encryption WPA-PSK if you can.:doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:0
