Try the adapter in another computer first.
If the adapter gives the same problem in another computer, it's gone defective and you need a new adapter.
Try that first, and post a reply here if the unit works in a different machine.

>If you have a Modem, aside from that router, the modem might no longer be on bridged mode, which is required to make the router function

>check it... if that's the case give your internet service provider a call and have them set your modem to bridged mode and connect the router, since nothing was changed on the router it should be able to detect internet signals rightaway ?

Check the wireless access points in the area. There may be another with a stronger signal that you are connecting to. Then make sure that you are not set to automatically connect.

Ususally when you have two different brand products, they seem not to work too well. Also, those type of adapters generally get bed reception.

2. What wireless adapter are you using?
3. What is the operating system of your computer?

Download version 1.3

I was running into the same issue when I formatted my computer. It worked fine before that. I downloaded the version 1.3 though and it installed easily. There are step by step instructions how to install it as well. Hope this helps!

Configure router via ethernet cable in first instance. Then install adapter. May need to hange MTU for AOL as ISP.

The solution I have is quite simple. I use Vista premium x64 so someone else can test it on Xp but it should work for both. In Vista the 1.3 version doesnt work so Facid's solution doesnt work for me.


[LIST=1]
[*]Get the 2.1 setup for Vista and install it.
[*]Go to your NETGEAR folder wherever you installed it to (Program Files x86 for me) and copy the DRIVERS folder to your desktop.
[*]Uninstall the smartwizard and remove everything in the NETGEAR folder.
[*]Plug in your WG111T.
[*]Go to Device Manager and find your WG111T in the list, Right Click and Update Driver.
[*]Browse to the DRIVERS folder on your desktop when it asks where to look for the driver and the WG111T will install. It should popup with a little message when it is completed but you will not be online yet.

[B]I dont know what you would do in Xp x64 system but I believe it has its own wireless manager like Vista and should be quite simalar.[/B]
[*]IN VISTA go to the Connect To button in your Start menu, It should be under Computer and Network, it should show your router along with a 5 bar network strength graphic.
[*]For me all I had to do was double click on the network and put in my WEP hex key and it conected.

Is it the password to get inside the router or the password for the wireless connection?

Hi - Well, I do have one thing for you look for -
what type of network access are you trying to set up?

I'd just reinstall the software again (don't worry about the uninstall yet) and say okay if it asks if it can overwrite the files.

With the type of card you are mentioning, you are probably going to have to set it up to access as WEP (instead of WPA's). That was what was wrong when we installed one of these two weeks ago. I was trying to connect to the WPA-personal that I'd set up the router to and already had one computer set up for. I had to change the entire network setup (including router) to WEP to accommodate the new connection! (And WEP is slower than WPA's.)

I hope that is the only problem for you.
