Help with my wireless router

Hello

I have been having problems with my wireless connection

I have tried technical help with my internet provider, but they are NO help.

I have a Sony vaio laptop XP windows

My router is Speedtouch 858 v6

I can get internet connection via using the Eternet cable, but when i unplug cable my wireless connection will not work?

Any suggestions

Thanks

 

Is your computer detecting the wireless connection? If not, is the wireless light on your router lit up? If not, check your router settings and ensure that your wireless is enabled. Do this by opening up the RUN wondow and typing CMD. Once the window is open type ipconfig and see what your default gateway is (It'll be 192.168.x.x). Once you have the ip address enter it in your browsers address bar. This will take you into your routers setup/configuration page. There may also be a setup wizard too that'll walk you through it and test your connection.

 

Hi thanks

I have put the following ip address in my browser to up load my Router page, but it keeps saying the server can't be found?

 

What exactly was the ip address you entered? And you got it through ipconfig right? Also, sorry I should have mentioned, you need to be hardwired via ethernet while doing all this.

 

Hi

Ip address is working now, here is the page listed below.

It says its enabled?

Can you see anything that needs to be changed.

Thanks

Is your computer picking up the wireless? Or does is not even find it at all?

 

I have just clicked on the wireless network icon and it just says not connected?

I have been wireless for the last 12 months, is there something i haven't done on the wireless setup page.

 

Are you using the windows wireless utility or third party sofware?
