Hello,
I hope someone can help.

I can connect my laptop directly to the net by plugging a cable between it & the netgear box, and I can then access the 192.168.1.1 control panel.

However, no matter how I configure the settings I cannot get the laptop to work wirelessly, even if in the control panel I set the security to none.

It still won't connect up.

So I'm assuming that it must be some setting on the laptop?

I've made sure the tcp/ip settings are to automatic/detect dns etc.

What else can I try?

Thanks.
