Hello.
I'm having a problem with getting an internet connection when linking my wireless broadband router with NTL broadband. Basically, I'm trying to share the connection through the wireless gateway with two other computers. However, the internet doesn't seem to want to work when I'm using the wireless gateway router (all plugged in correctly, I assume).
My System Properties:
Microsoft Windows XP
Professional
Version 2002
Computer:
AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2400+
2.00GHz
992 MB of RAM
- I'm trying to share the connection using
MSI Wireless 11g Broadband Router RG54G2.
- I'm using NTL Broadband - Ethernet.
Under Network Connections:
NVIDIA nForce MCP Networking Adapter -
Currently Enabled
Realtek RTL8139 Family PCI Fast Ethernet NIC -
Currently Unplugged
Realtek is the one used with the wireless router.
Here are the Realtek properties:
Local Area Connection Status
Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
Address Type: Arranged by DHCP
IP Address: 192.168.1.5
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.2
Network Connection Details: (Includes the above ^)
Physical Address: 00-40-F4-B2-96-3D
DHCP - 192.168.1.2
DNS Server - 192.168.1.2
WINS - (BLANK)
MSI Manual states that the gateway's IP is 192.168.1.254. However using that as the default gateway by changing the network settings doesn't work.
There's also the scenario with the packages being sent when I'm attempting to work through the router.
Selecting Status for the Realtek Network (when all cables are inserted correctly- (assuming what I am doing is correct), the packets are being sent, but very few are being received.
I'm trying to share the internet connection through the gateway with 2 other computers (one is WIndows 98, other is Windows XP). If this is of any relevance, previously I have used this gateway and everything has worked perfectly using the same equipment. However, I re-installed both XP and Windows 98.. and since then there has been problems.
Help would be appreciated. It's probably a small problem, I'm just at a loss currently after attempting to try and fix it.
Thanks
