On-line with my smartphone

Today I set up a new wireless router at home and managed to get my Qtek S200 connected. I had an old D-link 614 before but it had some serious issues making DHCP incompatible with some versions of Windows Mobile Edition. I chose the cheapest Netgear router at the local computer store and it worked perfectly. I’m writing this post with my phone.
One other thing I learnt today is that Windows Vista has some special security requirements regarding wireless connections. It won’t for example accept wireless nets with an SSID that contains spaces. I’ve searched through the settings in Windows a couple of times, but have not been able to find where these security settings can be changed. It seems to have been hidden good by Microsoft. I guess it is not something they like you to change easily.
