you should follow the instructions on the manual to log into your router to setup wireless security and what not
or tell us exactly what you have done so far |

i cant even log in to the router. all ive been able to do is plug-in the router to the modem and to my laptop.
ive tried restarting the modem. ive tried typing, netsh int ip reset somelog.txt and netsh winsock reset catalog in the cmd prompt but no luck |

Is your computer set up to receive DHCP, or does it have a static IP? A post of your ipconfig /all from a cmd prompt would be helpful. That routers IP is 192.168.1.1, and if you have a static IP you can get the message you've described.

Can you post the connection info for the adapter card? Like what I've posted below. That will give a better idea on your connection to the router.

You can also try "ipconfig /renew". What error message do you get when trying to connect to the router? or does it just hang? Have you tried pinging the address? (open a cmd box and type "ping 192.168.1.1"). you should get an output similar to the following: Quote:
If your wireless card on the laptop is enabled, turn it off or disable it. |
