Answer 1

Did you go into the Admin page for the router? Every router I have ever worked with, or did troubleshooting on, has an area that allows you to do so.

Open up IE on the primary wired computer and go to:

http://192.168.0.1

This should open the page, and may prompt you for a password. First try clicking Ok, to see if it will let you through, if not try either 'password' or 'admin', (without quotes', in the password field.

Go through all the screens and you should be good to go!

Cheers

You should be able to address this at the router configuration and set up. You should open your browser, type in the LAN IP of the router in the browser address bar (also called the default gateway, probably either 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 depending upon the subnet selected initially), and then go to the wireless section; from there you should be able to find it. I do not recall the exact pathway but I have found it before.

You should ALWAYS use a wired link to the router when you configure a router; run a straight cat5 cable from pc RJ45 network port to the LAN port of the router.
