Hi,
Im trying to connect a laptop to a wireless router to share internet connection and files on the network...Its a netgear wireless router (model DGxxxxx) and a netgear network card...
I installed the network card software on the laptop, configured it at which point it found the network so I inserted the key for WEP and then run small office/home network wizard then rebooted....
The laptop connects to the network and has full signal......when I go to connection status I noticed the IP, SUBNET MASK etc are all unavailable when the IP should be assigned by DHCP...
I cannot access the internet or share files...
I am using win xp home sp1 and there is norton on there as well....
What am I doing wrong ?
Please advise
Thanks in advance...
