Atlanta Computer Help
why can’t my computer detect my wireless router?
I am using a netgear wgr614 v6 wireless router, virgin media broadband and a scientific atlanta webstar modem. my computer is a compaq presario c300ea laptop.
The network worked fine with the wireless router before, but has not been used for a while. I have been using the internet by connecting directly to the modem by ethernet. I have been trying to set it back up with the router by using the setup cd that came with the router. I have followed the directions exactly, but when it comes to the last step it says it can’t find a connection. However, if i plug the modem back into the computer i get a connection straight away. I’ve made sure all the right cables re in the right place and that the correct lights are on, but still it doesn’t work. I have also tries using the reset button on the back of the router but it’s made no difference.
Any ideas what could be wrong? I’d be grateful for any help as it’s doing my head in!!!!!!!!!! Thanks!
You have the compaq hooked up by a ethernet cable to the router right? And you have the wired connection enabled in network properties?
Try accessing the router by the default address. open internet explorer and in the address bar type 192.168.0.1 or it might be 192.168.1.1
this will bring up the router setup
If it wants a username and password use admin or administrator and leave the password blank
