Hi folks, I am hoping one of you can help me with an issue I am having, basically I am swapping routers from my current linksys to a wireless capable one as I now have a laptop I will want to use.

The issue I am having is that the router when first plugged in asks to go through the wizard which I have let it do, on completing the search it is telling me it has found a fixed IP network which I know is wrong.

In the LAN settings it is setting up DHCP ip addresses, in the devices it is showing a connection to my pc with the correct MAC address but it just wont connect to the LAN no matter what I try.

To me it looks as though it will not communicate with the SB4200 modem and I am a bit stuck for suggestions now.

I have replaced the cables with spares to eliminate that problem, I am not connecting any wireless devices for now as I just want to get the wired connection first, I have also upgraded the firmware to the most current european one after my initial attempt which had the same result.
Nothing is every easy is it!

cheers
