I need a setup disk for Technicolour TG587n home network gateway

Home networking explained part 5 Setting up home router

You will need a wired ETHERNET port to perform the initial setup of the Gateway and IP address.

As the ipad would be configured to access the router at the first place, it is not feasible to setup the router at the first place with ipad.

Try here for Documents/user manual: http://www.technicolor.com/en/hi/digital-home/mediaaccess/dsl/advanced-service-gateways/adsl/technicolor-tg587n-v3

you should be able to set up a home network you will have to enable file sharing, if you run through the network setup wizzard in the control pannel it should be fairly straightforward

You NEVER need that CD-ROM disk. :-)

Use an Ethernet cable to connect from a LAN port on the router to the network-port on your computer.

Click Start.
Click Run.
Type CMD
Press Enter.
Type IPCONFIG
Press Enter.
Look for output similar to:
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.123.456
Start Internet Explorer.
Type http://192.168.123.456 (or whatever value that you saw).
Login to the router (ID: admin, password: [blank]).
Click to run the "Wireless Networking Setup Wizard".
Enter an SSID.
Choose an encryption-level (use: 'WPA').
Choose a password for your wireless network.
Save the changes.

Disconnect the Ethernet cable, and click "View Available Wireless Networks". Connect to the SSID that you chose, and enter the password.

You can adjust settings by going into 2Wire Router using your internet browser..
Default IP Address on 2Wire Routers: http://home/ This will take you to manager tools
Default Username / UserID on 2Wire Routers: None
Default Password on 2Wire Routers: Wireless
Default Netmask on 2Wire Routers: 255.255.255.0

If you can’t access management tools because of logon or password, you can reset to above
By following these directions

Your computer tries to boot from various devices:
* CD-ROM
* disk-drive
* USB memory-stick
* 3.5" diskette
* network

in some order that has been configured (either at the factory, or by you, during BIOS SETUP).

So, if there is no media in the CD-ROM, no media in the diskette drive, no connected USB drive, then it will boot from either the network (if there is a network-cable that is connected to a "boot-server" system) or from the disk-drive.

So, is your disk-drive getting power?
Is the "data" cable between the motherboard and the disk-drive connected?
Is the disk-drive "dead" (not spinning) ?

Check your disk-drive.

You may need to purchase a new disk-drive, connect it, and reinstall Windows.

in thsi
open internet explorer and enter your default gateway address over there and you can get it by doing ipconfig in command prompt
once you entered the default gateway it will open the home page of router
under that look for firewall or home network and you will find wireless over there and the wireless key would be there
OR you can contact the person who setup your wireless router

do u have a switch enabling/disabling wifi?
if yes, turn wifi on!

If not done allready, setup the lan IP address and default gateway in win98 Click MyComputer-ControlPanel-Network-Double Click TCP/IP Adapter for your 3com device-insert LAN info for IP Adress-subnet mask, Gateway and your Internet service providors DNS Addresses info Tab's (3x different Tabs "IP Adress" "Gateway" "DNS Configuration") IP Adress will be at least one number higher than your gateway address and not allready being used by other PC's on your network and gateway address will same as your router interface address subnet mask will be the same for all PC's on your network. For 3com and Netgear routers LAN setup is usually Gateway = 192.168.1.1 Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.0 IP Adress = 192.168.1.10(choose alternate number than 10 if allready used by another PC on your network, try to use round numbers, must be a number higher than 1) Once all info is entered click OK (this may trigger a database info update message and task)now your LAN is setup and ready to talk to your network Restart PC and try browsing again. May possibly require reinstallation of the TCP/IP client (you double clicked this to setup your LAN in Win98) or reinstallation of the IIS(Internet Information Services)component found in, Add/Remove Programs-Add/Remove windows components and then try LAN setup again if this does not work first time round
