Netgear Wirless Router

IF YOU WANT TO USE NETGEAR AS A ROUTER YOU PLUG THE ETH-CABLE TO IT AND START LOOK IN THE PC FOR WIRELESS NETWORK.ON THE OTHER YOU CAN CONNECT YOU DSL CABLE DIRECTLY TO YOUR PC.

Hi,


You need to do some wireless setting on router,
Please follow steps to fix your issue

1.Please changed network (SSID)name of router
2.Reinstall adapter driver
If you follow above steps defenately your issue would be resolved

Try resetting the router and try the same .

If your with cable ISP you need to mac clone the mac address of the pc to the router.
1.make sure that everything is connected properly (modem to internet port of the router and pc to regular port)
2.access the router, http://192.168.1.1 (username: admin / password: password)
3.under basic settings page, scroll down to the bottom and look for router mac address and select Use Computer MAC Address and then hit apply
4.click the router status on the left pane and check if there's an IP under internet port, if yes it should be working and if not you need to power cycle the network
5. to power cycle, turn off the router and modem for 3 minutes and then turn on the modem first and then the router
5.it should work now

it might be asking for a WEP password in order for you to use it which is on the botom of the router or the game sistem is the one causing the trouble and should not be conected to any wirless or eathernet internet routers.

I encountered the same problem, with the same modem and also Comcast, and here's what wound up working for me, after time spent with a nice guy on the Netgear customer support line:

1. Log into router: http://192.168.0.1 (or 192.168.1.1) - user: admin / password: password

2. Under Maintenance, click Router Status. If IP Address is listed as 0.0.0.0, there's your problem-- router isn't getting address from modem.

3. At bottom of Basic Settings, under Router MAC Address, change selection from Use Default Address to Use Computer MAC Address.

4. Click Apply.

5. Click Router Status again-- non-blank IP address should now be listed.

6. Basic Settings will now show MAC address under Use This MAC Address. See if you can get online now. I could, and I hope you can, too!

hi Lorraine! may i know what type of laptop brand do you have? mac or etc..?

You need to make sure your internet is still working. Its possible the storm caused some damage to the dsl line

Can you plug a normal broadband modem in and connect to the internet?

If you can, then try unplugging your router and plugging it back in, give it a few mins to boot up and try again (if you havn't tried this already)

If still no luck you'll have to do a master reset and set your router back up and try that, however at this point I'd guess the storm killed your router.

If you havn't got a broadband modem that plugs strait in, then ring your ISP and ask them if they've had any problems thier end.

hope this helps
