Network Problem Solvers

Problem: My router can't connect to the Internet.

Solution: Check the network settings provided by your ISP against the configuration of your router. Remember that if you have a PPPoE connection, you'll have to enter the username and password for your DSL account into your browser's configuration.

Problem: My notebook can't connect to my wireless network.

Solution: If you're using Wireless Encryption Protocol security, make certain that you've entered the correct network key.

Problem: My 802.11g PC Card doesn't transmit at the speed it's supposed to.

Solution: If you have an 802.11b card in your network, it will drop your entire network to the slower 11b speed. Consider upgrading to an all-11g network for faster connections.
