I have an Eircom BB connection for some time now.
Netopia wireless router.
Belkin wireless PCI adapter (Thinks I'm in the US) attached to ancient PC.
On looking through the Belkin Wireless Utility, I find that I have just gained another network, just labelled ZyXEL.
Does this just mean that someone nearby has a BT connection?
