Router problems!!!! Ok, so I've been trying to get online all night and have not been able to. Thought it was my satellite :confused: But un-hooked my router, that I just hooked up yesterday and now my internet works. AND I can't get my laptop to sign on either! (wireless) And here I was so proud that I hooked it all up by myself. Thats why it seemed so easy!!! I did it wrong! Help :confused: :confused: :confused: |
First thing, check to make sure your firewall is not blocking the router. You need to go into the firewall program and tell it to allow the router. |
It will be hard to diagnose without seeing it, but... Do you have the little icon down in the lower right corner of your screen that shows the network? (looks like two teeny computer screens)? If so, right click on it, and you should get a choice, one of which says diagnose and repair. Click that. Let me know what happens. |

I just found Windows Firewall. It advises not to disable :confused: |
OK..you'll have to be online with the router for it to work. Here are some things to try when you go back and hook it up. Do that same right click, and there is another option for connect to network. There should be a choice pop up with that. You should see at least your own network (and maybe some of your neighbors' too). If you can't connect to it, it may be that you haven't yet entered in a security key. The firewall is another thing, too. You can find that in your virus program, and I think also in your user account set up. Are you using XP or Vista? |
