Like, I see that it is telling me the MAC addresses and channels and stuff, but I don't know how to use that to connect to my dad's network. Or perhaps, is there a simpler solution to do this? I'm usually pretty good with computers, but this problem is beyond my abilities. I'd really appreciate it is someone could help me out.
