Hi, I am brand new to this forum but hope somebody may be in a position to help me? My set up is as follows...
Internet(NTL 2MB service)>>Cable modem>>ASUS Wireless router>>laptop (with Netgear PCMCIA wireless card.)
This all worked beautifully till last week, internet connection got lost & I can't get it back via wireless! The setup below works fine...
Internet>>Cable modem>>laptop!!
But, when I put the router between the modem & the laptop, the router tells me it is disconnected!! I've had dropouts before but they have always just come straight back with a reboot, I s'pose I'm lucky to have the internet back for work but why has the router suddenly decided it doesn't want to accept a connection? I'm on my second router as the first one did this & I thought it was an ASUS thing & replaced it but this one does exactly the same?
Long post - I'm sorry. Did use "search" prior to posting but couldn't find anything directly connected to my problem? Any assistance will be very, very gratefully received.
