I just got a sitecom wireless router with the intention of wirelessly connecting two pc's to my virgin cable connection. I expected this to be problem free as I have helped others set up wireless connections in the past and had no difficulties. But this is problematic to say the least.

First of all getting a connection at all is problematic. When I do get a connection if i reboot the computer it's gone again and I have to go through a process of turning the pc off then rebooting both the cable modem and the wireless router before powering up the pc again.

Secondly when I do get the connection up and running again it's then impossible to have a connection on the second pc. I can have one or the other connected after this tedious process of rebooting both cable modem and router but never both connected.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
