| | Linksys wireless adapter, win98se
| |
| | My linksys link information is showing a strong signal and link
quality
| but
| | I can't connect to the 'net.
| | Here are the setting;
| |
| | **Wireless Network Status**
| | status, connected
| | ssid, Dan
| | network mode, ad-hoc
| | transfer rate, 11mbps
| | channel, 1
| | wep, off (trying to get it to work)
| | mac, 02-e0-4c-d3-f1-a0
| |
| | **TCP/IP Setting**
| | ip address, 192.168.0.101
| | submask, 255.255.255.0
| | default gateway. 192.168.0.1
| | dns, 192.168.0.1
| | dhsp, enabled
| |
| | any help would be helpful,
| | It's an older laptop running 98se which I haven't used in a while so
not
| | sure what settings I need to make,
| |
| | thanks,
| |

| Did you make sure any firewalls, HOSTS file, A-V, or other is not
blocking
| or limiting access?
| Recheck to ensure nothing previously installed is interfering.
| Also make sure your browsers are not set for proxy usage, or an old
dialup
| connection [always dial], or prior network..
|
| Have you tried using the ping test routines to see if you can ping your
| router, adapter, and the Internet?
| You MUST use a known ping return address when pinging the Internet like
| Google's.
|
| When you disabled WEP, did you do so across the devices?
|
| BTW: don't post MAC and SSID...
