    My apartment building has wireless Internet but to access it I have to turn off Windows firewall. Do you know how to do that?  If you do, please answer here or send a PM. Thanks.

    Click the start button and select control panel, then select security center, you will then find the windows firewall and you can elect to turn it off. 

    I hope this works for you, I don't know if it is the same in all versions of windows. 🙂

    You shouldn't need to turn off the firewall in order to get connected to a WAP (wireless access point).. What version of Windows are you running? XP?

    Thanks for the replies.  Pip's husband said not to turn off firewall.  Will invite a virus.  I will check with manager about this'

    Thanks again.
