Why not connect your laptop to the same WiFi source that your phone is using ? Most phones have trouble connecting to WiFi. I should find a scientific study on this, but I don't feel like it, not right now. P.S. Gas is $2.50/gallon here, I checked. Outside of Seattle, it's $1.60/gallon. Everything is cheaper outside of Seattle, more so than usual, so I'm having trouble finding renters.
