Hi all,
just bought new Modem/Router but have run into config probs:
The modem is a 'Sweex' Wireless ADSL Modem+Router+4 Port 10/100 Switch
Annex-A .
(Please enter[ cc400010UK ] in search bar at,
WWW.SWEEX.COM
for product Specs.)
I'm using XP Pro SP2 on a desktop PC, which I intend to connect to the
Modem/Router using ethernet.
The laptop is wireless enabled with a MiniPCI WLAN 802.11g and OS is XP Home.
I've followed the instructions as far as I can tell and changed the IP on
the desktop. The next instruction is to open the browser (IE) and
enter 10.0.0.2 (default gateway)in the search bar. But the desktop won't
open the browser.
Error message says "Web
page unavailable offline" and internet connection (Wannadoo) is telling me
that there is "no dial tone" and to "make sure the modem is connected to the
computer and telephone line."
The ADSL (phone) line is plugged into the Router and Router is
connected via ethernet to PC, so why won't it 'see' it. Could there be a
vital 'Service' disabled? Am I right in thinking that my old USB Broadband
Modem (supplied by ISP) is now redundant and the new Modem /Router should
kick in and take over?
Hope this info helps,
TIA
