John, My suggestion is to hard reset your router. I dont' trust or like those wizards that come up in Windows from a disc.It's perfectly possible to configure your router without it and more désirable to do so.
The wizards monkey about with settings and don't always work.To reset the router find the small inset button on the back or side of the router.
Push it gently with a pencil or pin. Hold for 30 seconds and release. Give the router a minute and then follow the manusla insructions. Just to check there's a no missprint in the routers manual. Login is, http://192.168.1.1 username: admin password: admin Is this correct? Try just typing the password and leaving the username field blank.The broadcom you see in Add/Remove is most likely the driver for your network card.
It'll probably be somethingk Broadcom Ethernet. Let me know how you get on. Dj Paddy----- Original Message ----- From: "John R. & guide dog Iris" <johnathanrichards@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
