I set up a wireless internet connection at home: a modem to a wireless G router to 2 computers (1 desktop & 1 laptop w/ wireless adapters). After I configured my router (selecting a different router address than a common 192.168.0.n & enabling the WPA-TKIP encryption), I was surfing on the net for two to three hours before my internet browser was disconnected (unable to find the server) from the internet. I looked at the wireless connection icon and found that I was still connected and has a good signal strength. My limewire program was running and still downloading when my browser got disconnected. I ping www.yahoo.com & got time out, all packages lost, & I also ping www.google.com & got a response. I also tried updating the definitions for my Ad-Aware & anti-virus program to see if they can connect to the internet – work great the connections went through. I look at the TCP/IP configuration – everything normal, automatic address handling from ISP. Finally, I took off the router and connected the modem directly to my laptop – the FireFox & IE browsers work fine, got connection to the internet.
I think my router configuration is messing up the browser.
Do you have any ideas/suggestions on fixing or configurating the router so my browser can work?
Thanks.
