I have spent months trying to get my internet service working correctly through a router and everytime i think ive got it it lets me down again?
The problem i have at the moment is that the router doesnt seem to want to share my virgin media connection, i can get it on my PC thru the ethernet, if i switch off and switch on my laptop i can get it on wireless.
If i have wireless internet, the PC when switched on cant get internet and vice the versa?
I have had it working in the past but even then it was intermittant, but now it doesnt share at all.
In the past i had shared internet but actually sharing files and seeing the other PC didnt work.
I have reset go know how many times, this is also my second router, the first was a netgear, i now have a belkin pre n F5d8230-4 (thought this was supposed to be a goodone?)
As usual with what i have read on the forum, my internet works fine if i directly connect the modem to PC or laptop.
It must be some kind of clashing of the PCs? dunno but i cant just keep buying more routers?
Everyone else i talk to seems to get up and running wireless a piece of cake with standard issue AOL and BT stuff, why is this so hard?
Oh, also i have an NTL 250 modem, if this is to blame i need a good arguement as virgin seem to think its fine and refuse to replace it?
Hope someone has an idea cus im stumped!
Cheers
