Wireless-G in-home networking

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windows.networking.wireless (More info?)

I have finally set up a wireless network in my home so I could get on my wireless internet from upstairs and everything was going smoothly. I connected the internal wireless PCI card (Microsoft) and the wireless base station(Microsoft) and the base station is working perfectly, but the PCI card will not connect to my new wireless network. I've tried copying the IP address, subnet mask, etc. from the base station to the upstairs computer but nothing will connect my other computer to the network. Can someone help me?

The IP address can not be the same in both pc, change the las number in the
one upstairs, but leave the same subnet mask

What about the gateway address and the DNS server address? Do I leave them the same or do I exclude them from the upstairs computer?

the gateway is the router, so that must be the same. the only thing that can
not be the same is the computers IP address. The DNS also has to be the same
as it's the info from the ISP.

Hi there,

Not sure which wireless base station you have but here is a KB that you can use for troubleshooting Wireless connections:
