Hi:
I have been asked to setup a small wireless network for my bf’s father and his wife, on their laptops, mainly to share internet.
I bought a Netgear ADSL Wireless Firewall Router DG834G, and MA111, and a PCI Wireless card that came with the bundle. (Siorry i cannot recall the name at this moment).
The kit doesnt seem to wanna talk to one another,
One of the laptops is XP pro, and it talks to the router. The router doesnt go into the internet, even though i put in as much detail as was sent to the owners by their ISP.
The other laptop is Windows ME, and that one doesnt appear to see the Router.
As far as i can see, everything is on the same cxhannel, same ssid, same ip range, so everyithing
should work.
Except, it doesnt, I cant fidn how to tell the pcs that the router is their connection to the internet.
Netgear suggests in all their manuals to SWITCH OFF windows own wireless setup wizard, and wireless things.
Its just so frustrating, coz i always get so near and yet so far. I’ve spent some sundays trying to sort it, still none the wiser, so i know it would be something simple im overlooking. Please help!.
Thank you.
