TCP/IP isn't under the wireless interface, but there is a note which says all those things are in the Network Bridge. I look there and it appears that TCP/IP is in the list of the wireless.
Since I have DHCP active - maybe the router isn't furnishing the IP info to the laptop. I may have been pointing my finger at the wrong box.
What I need now is to find a WiFi access point that is known to work and do some experiments.
I really should be bothering the manufacturers, not this group.
Thank you for the help so far.
