I've just bought a Netgear DG834G adsl router + WG111 adapter and I'm having
a bit of a problem. I've setup the router via ethernet cable, and I've
installed the adapter drivers. I've scanned for the network, it appeared, I
connect to it, and the signal strength is excellent. However, when I remove
the ethernet cable from my PC to rely solely on wireless I cannot even ping
the router, let alone access the admin tools.
When I check my IP address with wires, everything is as expected
(192.168.0.2), however with just wireless, it's even not assigning my IP
address correctly.
I've tried this with and without WEP security turned on, but the same thing
happens. I must be overlooking something obvious - any ideas? This is
driving me nuts. Apologies for my lack of techie abilities.
