Hello,
I am currently at uni halls and have a lan socket in my room which I just plug a networking cable into and straight into my laptop and the internet works straight away. No passwords, no setting-up, no configuration. What I want to do is to try and connect to the internet wirelessly via my netgear dg834g wireless router. However, I've got a RJ45 to RJ11 cable and plugged it from the socket into the router and it does not seem to be picking up the internet connection for some reason. Is there any way I am able to do this or any particular settings I need to choose on the router? Thanks in advance!
