[Merged] Wireless Access Point Router and Modem Help
I set up a cable modem from virgin media at home. For home networking, I bought a router, and connected it to this cable modem. But, I could not surf internet from my laptop via wireless card. I checked my router and laptop. All things seemed to be fine. My laptop could reach my router, since it could be assigned to a IP address. But then, I also found that the sent packets were becoming more while the received packets were still ZERO in the box of networking connection of my laptop. This seemed to imply that the requests from my laptop were denied by the cable modem.
I worried a new MAC address needed to be registered in advance. So I cloned the MAC address of my router to my laptop’s Ethernet card, and finished registration online through Ethernet cable. I could surf internet by using this cloned MAC address on my laptop. Then I connected Ethernet cable to my router, and tried to connect internet by wireless card on my laptop. But it failed!
If any help, I would greatly appreciate you!
