Laptop not recognizing my wireless network?
I went to germany and I was able to connect to my boyfriend's internet. I bring the laptop back to my mother's house, and it won't recongize my wireless network I had set up. I personally had set up her wireless network so I know there is no password, so what's the deal? It's frustrating because it's picking up everyone else's wireless networks but not my own. What is going on? I tried everything from restarting the both the modem AND the wireless router, and even my laptop. The router I am using is the Linksys wireless-g 2.4 GHz. Please help me!

You said restarting, not resetting. Keep that as a final option, but you need to see if the wireless network is being found under " search fo all available networks ". If so, you should be able to try to connect, get to the network first, then try the Internet... If you can't see it, then maybe the router is not broadcasting the SSID, and that will need to be changed by connecting to the router config ( usually HTML accessible ). Try to get into the router with Ethernet cable too, might give clues to if its working or not... Lastly, you might need to reset the router and do another set up. Good luck

You might just only have to buy a plug converter. Read the labels on he chargers and stuff and see what voltage it accepts. Most chargers will accept up to 240 (the voltage in germany) and you will only need to get a plug converter.
2 :
The laptop and camera should only need a plug adapter. the hair straightener may need a voltage convert. read the back of your computer and charger, they should say 120-240 volts. if an item says 110 only then you need a voltage converter

All you need is a plug adaptor - your laptop power supply will work with either US or European voltages and frequencies. The plug adaptors are widely available: Radioshack, Target, Walmart, luggage stores, Brookstones, airport shops, ...
