Scarecrow Man Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 I assume you have the manual for it.Before you take it back, remove ALL hardware and ALL programs that go with the wireless from ALL computers. Then, open the book, read it all (or at least most) and follow it step by step.If that still doesn't work, something is seriously wrong.

Scarecrow Man Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 All wireless routers have to be set up before the device can connect to them. I'm sure it had software with it. What type of hardware are you using (base and card) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarecrow Man Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 Is this your router?http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage...oduct_Id=136493and this your PCI card?http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage...oduct_Id=136479If so, you'll notice at the bottom of the "Package Includes" section, there is a software CD for both. You have to use these. There are also drivers on the page as well.PCI Cardhttp://web.belkin.com/support/download/dow...00&lang=1&mode=BASEhttp://web.belkin.com/support/download/dow...-4&lang=1&mode=You will also find other useful links on the left of the pages supplied.

Kirbster Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 I have to agree with Blink 182 here, I have the identical router, the CD that came with the router has nothing but the manual on it. I configured my wireless network the other day, it was simple, just install the router to the wired computer, then installed a wireless card, the router automatically assigns it an IP address and was off and running!!!Blink 182, have you been into the router settings at all, can you see the other computers on the network from the one that's getting the error message?

Blink_182_fan Posted August 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 Ok i did have the network running fine for about a month but when checking the computer with the pci card it says there is no compatible drivers for belikin wireless ..... .The drivers are installed properly and i installed them again when this message came up and its still coming up so i have found an 8mb update file which im going to try and get burnt on to a cd of a friends computer and hopefully it will work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homecomputeraid Posted October 15, 2004 Report Share Posted October 15, 2004 The wireless network card should come with some utility for checking signal strength, and connection. Do you know how to get that utility to work? I'd open it and see what it says.Also, on the other comptuer, the one that's wired to the Router, open a browser window and go to 192.168.0.1 (that's usually the default for a home router, but check your network to be sure), and make sure wireless is turned on at the Router. On both the router and the wireless computer, make sure your SSID, and Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security settings match.
