Hi again,
Having read your message more closely, I am wondering, might this be
something to do with your router? I know that ours is OK, but that might be
just chance. I do know that it can only work on certain channels or some such.
If you go to the Neato Robotics site, there is a useful FaQ section, I saw
referehce to the wifi question there. I am thinking that this might be your
problem. If so, it will not be a question of accessibility, but something that
might occur to anyone.
Good luck again, Sandy.
