I have a Compaq Evo N600c with a Dlink airplus dwl 650+ adapter and am attempting to connect to a Linksys WRT 54G wireless router. Is this possible to do considering the different brands of router and card,and are the two even compatable? I ve been messing with this for a few days,with no luck. I did connect thru a hardwire with the router to the laptop,but no luck using the wireless. SSID s are the same as are the channels. I tried both infrastructure and adhoc. Allowed windows to find the settings ,and did it manually. I finally did get the adapter to start working,but the router wont accept the signal.

the lappy has Win 2k installed. The one wireless connected puter now has winxp.

Thanks,eh?

run the ipconfig command and post your IP....

START>RUN>cmd>OK....
ipconfig (post your ip & gateway addr....)
IP Address ...... 192.168.
Default Gateway...... 192.168.

If 0.0.0.0 or blank, disable ALL your PC firewalls & check (control panel) network connect - your nic is probably disabled. If enabled, enter

ipconfig/release
ipconfig/renew
