Hi everyone!
I've recently purchased a pair of Powerlink adapters in order to have internet access in the other side of my bungalow, one of the adapters is wired via Ethernet to my Virgin SuperHub (connected to my PC) and the other one is wired into a Netgear router to broadcast a signal to the other rooms. The WiFi works great but unfortunately, I can't seem to use the internet on my PC if the SuperHub is wired to the adapter.
Any help would be much appreciated :)
Thanks,
Sam

it may be that on the super hub you have dhcp turned on. you have to turn it off and give the hub a fix ip that within the ip range of the router. if that not the issue then make sure the hub not using the same starting ip as the router. and other parts in your network set up. (192.168.1.1 if used by the router then set the hub to 192.168.1.10 see if that fixes your error.

Hi smorizio!
I took your advice and checked whether my DHCP was on and it was, so I turned it off and changed the IP just like you said. To my extreme annoyance, the WiFi had stopped working completely and would not connect at all, so I reset my SuperHub.
Please give me some more advice! :D
Thanks,
Sam.

P.S. I accidentally picked your answer as the solution, sorry hehe :)

Please could you explain to me how to do this? Where would I get the MAC info from?
Thanks. :)
