No probs :-)

What do you want to connect you Fuji to? an access point, obviously,
but then what? another PC? or something else?

Just thinking that if it's another PC, or a higher-spec router, you
could maybe initiate a VPN session so even though your 2nd network is
"less secure", your data is encrypted.

Cheers,

Tim.
