A bit of new info for anyone out there who might be able to help me.
We have been able to connect the laptop to the router by ethernet cable
and it can then receive AOL Broadband perfectly.
That is, along side the main PC(connected to the router) and son's PC(wireless).
It is only when the laptop needs to go wireless that it 'cannot find server'! The signal strength from the router is still excellent.
If I take the laptop into a computer shop, would they be able to tell what's wrong without our router present? In other words, will the problem be with laptop or router?
I have contacted netgear (yesterday)but they have not come back to me yet. So far only sending me 3 e-mails apologising for not having got back to me.
One more question, would the TCP/IP address need to be the same on the main computer as on the laptop? Cos I don't think it is.
I'm so fed up with this now
Thanks.
Trish
