So I just bought a Linksys WRT54GS b/G wireless router to use in the new loft and have been struggling for the last hour to get it set up. I am directly connected to it now and it runs fine. When I disconnect the cable and attempt to run wireless with my Dell Inspiron 9100 (has the 1300 series b/G mini-pci card installed) I cannot connect to the internet.
I have WEP on and the key is the same, the laptop sees the network and signal strength shows as excellent but it cannot renew the IP address and it does not see the internet..
I could use help, I tried the disk that came with the router but it does not help and a search here didnt reveal any answers. I would like to use this as secure as possible but first I would just like to connect to the web.
Thanks in advance...
