I am trying to connect my laptop to my sister's wireless network (linksys) and it is asking for a network security key. Someone else set up the network and neither my sister nor my brother-in-law know what the password is. I tried to access the ip address (192.168.1.1) but it is asking for a logon name and password- again- don't have one. any help is appreciated. thanks

Hi everyone, Hope I can get some help here.
I've been having this problem for about 2-3 months now. Virgin broadband 2meg connection. Here's the story so far. I get up in the morning, startup pc, no internet connection. In network connections it say's "connected" but still no internet, and using run/cmd to ping www.bbc.co.uk etc. Produces nothing Click repair, works 2 out of 20 times. Disable connection then re-enable then click repair works 2 out of 20 times. Rebooting pc & modem does not help. I’ve updated & ran AVG, Spybot, Adaware and other system tools and all A1.
So, boot into safe mode internet is ok and all works fine. I then reboot into normal mode (without doing anything else i.e. repair etc.) internet still works, it will work all day, can reboot and still ok, even if firewall is enabled. Wake up in morning and have to go through the same sorry kafuffle lol. Virgin said it was xp firewall. (Don’t think so as I’ve never had problems with the firewall until now, and had the firewall disabled even as I was speaking to them) so they sent out an engineer who said everything was fine with their end, but fitted a new modem anyway. I've fitted new d-link pci network card, full format of hard drive, fresh install of XP and Virgin's broadband setup... still the same. Please help before I resort to attacking nice people exiting Virginmedia office buildings, haha. Have a lovely Sunday. Kind regards Charlie.

I have a "main" computer that I store my music files on. These are protected WMA files I purchase from Napster. I have a few other laptops that, along with the main computer, are networked via a Linksys wireless router.

While I can see the files on all the other PCs, I can't get Windows Media player to play the protected WMAs from any machine but the one I downloaded them on to. I know it has something to do with the DRM stuff, but it seems like there should be a way for me to play songs I legally purchased from any machine on my home network.

So...what am I missing? All machines are running Windows XP Pro, and all are in the same workgroup. I've tried moving stuff to the Shared Folders, but that didn't work (unless I did it wrong). Help!

It's supposed to be doable. I won't use messenger because I apparently can't use messenger without also using .net passport (and yes, I know the password isn't the same as my windows password). I think passport is a bad idea. Now whether or not you agree with me on that isn't the point. The point is that I haven't been able to use Remote Assistance through email and would like to know how to do that.

Thanks!

I have a WGT624v3 Wireless Firewall Router from NetGear, It worked on my old computer but I have a new one now and I can't make it work. I think I was suppose to download some files from http://kbserver.netgear.com/kb_web_files/n101649.asp and http://kbserver.netgear.com/products/WGT624v3.asp but I don't know what to do after I've downloaded them.. they're just files.

I think it has something to do with the routers access place which is http://192.168.1.1 but it doesnt ever come up..

and on this page I tried to follow the steps but no networks ever come up. http://kbserver.netgear.com/kb_web_files/n101692.asp
and this page REALLY confused me. http://kbserver.netgear.com/inquira/default.asp?ui_mode=answer&prior_transaction_id=156673&action_code=5&highlight_info=16777285,42,46&turl=http%3A%2F%2Fkbserver.netgear.com%2Fkb_web_files%2FN101496.asp&answer_id=6972361
I'm having trouble how to setup the router on my new computer so please try to help me understand! Thank you!! =]

Could someone kindly tell me how I can obtain the IP address of a device connected directly via a standard ethernet cable to this computer. I need to communicate with a LinkSys wireless bridge in order to set it up. I know that the IP of this bridge is somewhere in the range 192.168.1.xx. However I do not know the full address. I have manually assigned a computer IP 192.168.1.10, with a default gateway 192.168.1.1. When I plug in the wireless bridge, an active connection is made between the two computers. BUT, I do not know what the IP of the bridge is. How can I find this out? I can't ping it because I don't have the IP.

Thanks very much.

I have a Linksys WRT54GSv4 router connected to my Efficient Networks Speedstream 5260 DSL Modem. All the computers in our apartment connect to the Linksys router which is then connected to the DSL modem.

We login to our service via PPPoE which the router nicely gives the authentication to the modem for (user/pass are saved in the router).

My question is, I used to be able to login to my DSL modem somehow through my router but now I do not know where to even begin. How can I obtain the IP address of the Speedstream modem? In my Linksys router's web config I only see the IP address that the router has and our external IP address - I remember the DSL modem had something like 10.0.0.1 but when I trying going to that address I get nothing --

Is there a way I can figure out whats the IP address of the DSL modem that the router is connecting to so I can get into its web interface?

Thanks!
