Hello,
My family and I are attempting to resolve a concern over networking a PC to our/the netword.
Our modem-router is a wireless router: Netgear Rangemax(m)NEXT/Wireless Adapter; the wireless adapter in use is the Netgear WN311B (PCI Adapter).
Attached to our router are two ethernet PC’s, two wireless laptops and the one wireless PC adapter as stated above.
All other computers/laptops work on the network, and the other laptop is connected to the Modem wireless router with no problems; the PC with the concern connects with the settings to the Netgear router with the security settings we all use. The difficulty is when we are awaiting the proverbial
“Acquiring Network Address”. Having waited at least 5 minutes for this to activate, nothing happens.
There are no changes to the network in any manner.
Has anyone any suggestions to resolve this?
I am thinking that it might be a malicous worm/trojan or virus causing this. But nothing comes up on our A/V protection and Comodo either!
Would it be best for me to removal the adapater card and then reload Windows again?
Our family would be grateful for your advice?
Thanks,
Nigel Miles
