check what wireless card the laptop my guess as its old its using either b or g standard wireless where as the new standard is wireless 'n' this is a known issue with new routers you should set your router's wireless to read b/g/n so all such can connect to it ..is basic problem iv seen a lot with older systems connecting to brand new routers that only have n selected! some tabs / phones dont yet utilise wireless 'n' thats what it sounds like to me ..also check your wireless secuity have that set to WPA not wep unless your computer is really that old! ie running windows 98 anything running xp and later should work fine on a router using wpa do this and it should be sorted out let me know how you get on

as for the photobucket question you need to upload from 'files' not gallery look in apps and find a folder names files choose the camera or dcim file where your photos are at and upload them

Ok, trying all that now.

also will try wireless usb.

Re tab, found the files now, seems i have to open each one at a time, to see what pic it is, then upload, is that right?

Thanks for your help so far, really appreciated.
