Why is the Motorola SURFboard Gateway SBG6580 ethernet not working?

Open Device Manager and set the wireless adapter Power tab to not turn off to save energy. Or modify Sleep mode to not turn off wireless adapters and USB devices. USB if you use a USB wireless adapter.

I have a Motorola SURFboard Gateway SBG6580 modem. I want to use the wireless for my DS lite but it says that I need an WEP key, but I don't know how to enable it. Help!

Your wireless is set up with a password. You need to get that password before you can connect any more devices. From a computer that can connect to the internet go to 192.168.0.1. Then type admin for the username and motorola for the password. I believe from there you click Wireless then click Primary Network. You should see your wireless network name and password from there. I'm getting this from the modems manual here: http://www.midcocomm.com/_files/files/SBG6580.pdf

Try changing the authentication type to WEP/WPA/WPA etc. Might be your XP laptop doesn't support current authentication type. Thanks for joining us. Have a nice day.
