Hi Andy.

OK, open your web browser and go to the default router address which is 
something like http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.1.1 and attempt to log in.  
When you say passkey, do you mean the wireless security passkey or the passkey 
to access the router itself.  If the former, you can easily change this in the 
wireless options of the web interface, however if its the latter where you 
can't log in, you'll have to completely reset the router and start again using 
the disk and a wired connection.

  Subject: [access-uk] Adding my netbook to my network


  Hi all -

  Please bear with me as I feel like I'm in the deep end again :)

  When I get my Netbook, I want it to work wirelessly on the same network as my 
laptop.

  My current set up has been to have my now defunct desc top, wired via 
ethernet to my Netgeergb 834 router, and my laptop connected wirelessly. When I 
was setting this up, I used the CD that came with the Netgeer, and it placed a 
short cut on the desk top of the hard wired PC, that I could click on to see 
the router settings, including pass key etc. 

  Now that I've lost access to the PC, and only have my laptop working, I'm not 
sure what to do to get the netbook working wirelessly.

  Will I need the passkey that I created when installing the Netgeer threw the 
Ethernet cable to the PC? If so, I am unable to retrieve it because the PC has 
died; does this mean I need to start again, and install the Netgeer's software 
from the cd, on to my laptop?

  I hope this isn't too fuzzy <smile>

  Andy
