Glad it worked.. I've been doing Wi-Fi with assorted hardware for a long time. Some of the ways it can screw up will drive you batty and then some.
I use both static and dynamic addressing and a home made wi-fi repeater (Umbiquiti Nano Station outdoor and a pain in the arse Belkin indoors)
I have multiple computers (ReplyTV dvr. Windows Chrome books and two (realy 3 but one is still in the box) Raspgerry Pi's running ham radio software so I am learning ALL the shortcuts to success.
Glad that one worked for you.
One thing.. Many places you log onto a public router and they may not even change the SSID (LInksys is a common one) I've accessed more than one config page on such a router.
