You've lost me, David. Does the PC have access to the 'net? If so, does the lappy?

The laptop does not




Just tried and the laptop cant access the router

OK, let's go to basics for a moment. Connect it with a cable, does that work?

So it's purely the wireless link. Are you getting any kind of connection message on the lappy, can you see the router even if not connected to it?

The message on the lappy is (after it trying to repair itself) states there is a prblem with router /modem and to turn router off for 10 seconds to see if this fixes it.


Strange the 2 wire never gave any problems like this,although the router is good and very responsive

If the router is configured correctly including the wireless key password, then check to see if the wireless is on the laptop is turned on, is the wirelesszeroconfiguration service running?

Yes it is....I think the best thing to do is to start from scratch and set up a new wireless connection.......its almost impossible for you guyt to do this remotely.

Turn it all off first

Nice one, David. How is the router performing, stat wise? compared to the old one?

 :thnks: I dont know to be honest Ted this is the first router I have set up on my own,the one it replaced I wouldnt have known where to look but all this has certainly given me confidence to go in and have a good root around.

noise margin downstream: 20 db
output power upstream: 18 db
attenuation downstream: 40 db

Dont know if these are good or bad but I will have a read up




Learned a lot today,is there any other way to show stats other than a screenshot ?
