Hello,

No Internet Dilemma!

Ive been trying to help my friend out for the last couple of nights
with his new home networking setup.
All he wants is to connect to the internet via his laptop over
wireless while having his home desktop PC hooked up to the cable
modem.

So we have the basic bog standard setup (or so id think)

Internet --- MOTOROLA SB4200 SURFboard cable modem --- AzureWave 54g
Wireless 4-Port Cable Router
http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=218646&C=Maplin&U=SearchTop&T=ROUTER&doy=21m8

So After hours of troubleshooting at getting idiotic due to Windows
Vistas unreliability we finally reolised that the router wasnt picking
up an internet connection from it cable modem.

Im all out of ideas now and thought id try my luck with this forums...

Hope to hear from you all soon

Thanks, Dan

Silly idea, but you'd be surprised how many people are impatient and won't
do it...
Turn EVERYTHING off.
Turn on the cable modem
wait a minute or so and THEN turn on the wap/router
wait a few more minutes and THEN turn on the PC(s).....

Hey, it's free, and probably solves 90% of the problems you describe.....
Unfortunately, that also happens after the power gliches/goes off, and
things all usually turn on at the same time.. So if it starts working, the
same problem will happen again if the power fails...
