hey guys love the forum!!

i've recently bought a sweex Wireless Broadband Router 54 Mbps LC000070, and at first couldnt connect to the internet because it couldn't find the gateway, i managed to fix that problem the next problem that accord was that i now can send the internet connection out to my computers, but i know that the router has got a net connection because it's denying request from other internet ip, (yes i did check that it wasn't my ip's for the computer:)), so how can i get the net on other computers? please help has i really need it for college thanks alot

Is there an option in the router's settings to allow it to act as a DHCP server? If there is you need to ensure that this is turned on - this way it will provide IP addresses for all machines on your network.

Also, you should have 5 ports on the back of that router.

1 is for the WAN (or internet), the other 4 are for the LAN (local machines). Make sure that the cab;e from your modem is plugged into the WAN port.

How did you fix the problem of your router not finding a gateway?

What operating system are you using?

Can you connect at all (either wirelessly or with a cable) to the router?

If you take the router out of the equation can you access the internet normally? (you will need to reboot the modem if you change the device that is cabled to it)

right thanks for the reply i use to be able to connect throught the net using a hub and a machine as a server on normal wire connection.

we can not connect with wires into the router either and we have also made sure that the WAN cable is plugg into the right socket.

on all machines it's either xp pro, or xp home but no luk with both

i got the router to find the gateway by copying the exact settings from my sever (DNS, Dynamic Ip,Gateway), but thats were i get stuck how do i send it back to the compueters after the router has found the connection,

also if it's any help we can use the router for file sharing at the moment and thats all

thanks alo matt

have u tried resetting the router and just connecting one computer via an ethernet cable. Once we can get a connecting wired then we can concentrate on getting a wireless connection

the lan ip address you have given is the routers address.

Have you followed the instructions in the manual?

fblade1987
19-04-2005, 20:29
yes i followed the instruction and yeah that the ip for my router

so if u enter 192.168.123.254 u get to the setup wizard? U need to make sure that the router is acting as a DHCP server, this will allocate ip addresses to your computers

i've also done that as it's automaticly gave our computers ip's any other ideas

in internet options>connections>LAN settings, is it ticked to automatically detect settings ?

i know this may sound daft but where do i put these settings in?

also i've just been thinking that when i had the wierd network going into a hub i had to set the host computer to an ip like 192.168.0.1, thats the only setting it wud accept to allow net sharing would i need to do this on the router too?

jellybaby

U shouldn't really have to put any settings in anywhere. The router should pick up the settings it needs from the modem, and the pc's should get their settings from the router.

What ip address has your computer got?

fblade1987
19-04-2005, 21:39
one computer its 192.168.123.170
and the other 192.168.123.166

and what is the default gateway on the computers?
maby this will help a bit more
Ethernet adapter Wireless Network Connection:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.123.170
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 82.38.176.1
the 82.38.176.1 is the blueyonder gateway
also i just looked in the log list and noticed a connection had been block cud theses be somthing or just people trying to hack

the pc's default gateway will be the router, not blueyonders, so i'm guessing it should be 192.168.123.1

Looking at post #18, it looks like you may have manually set the IP info on the PC(s). The router should be set to obtain its WAN address (82.xx.xx.xx) from NTL via DHCP. The PC(s) should be set to 'obtain IP address automatically' and 'obtain DNS server address automatically. They will then get their IP addresses, default gateway and DNS server addresses automatically via DHCP from the router. On the PCs, the default gateway should be the address of the router (192.168.123.254 from an earlier post), but if everything is set to auto, this should be picked up via DHCP.

i found, if you change the WDS Settings (>basic>Wireless) to enable the Wireless Bridging the internet magically appears within internet explorer.

Took a few goes at messing around with the settings and this is the one that HAS to be changed to get DSL broadband working.
