Connection problems Ok, Here is my problem with my connection...everytime I try to setup my router (I don't know correctly) , but it's gives me this error sign when I try to connect to the the internet saying = "http://ask.askredir.com/search/cfg_redir3.jhtml?id=FE&psa=12AB9041-E5C0-40EB-BFDC-1B3D544EEC19&url=http://www.ask.com/web&l=dis&o=13018&gc=1&gct=dns&ind=2008081718&q=www%2eyahoo%2ecom" Please Someone HELP!!!

1) does it lock up completely or will it work hard lined when wifi fails?
2) do all devices wireless fail or just a single device?
3) do you lose connection to the wireless completely or keep the connection but lose access to the internet? (confusing but very different to me)

in the end you could narrow down the problem but if you have already reset to factory defaults and set back up again and again then it may be time to retire that old router.

HEllo bro...

Good luck and be careful. sometimes you make it right but router need time to create new connection..
For the best go here Lynksis setup

You need to have the router connected directly to the computer to do this setup. If you are directly connected to the internet you cannot communicate with the router and most everything will fail. Remember to set wireless security on the router, give a ssytem name and consider setting channels to 11 or so to not compete with wireless home phones.

did u try to auto detect internet connection

Can you give me your phone and then i call you ok Randy

try to do a power cycle. turn off everything. then turn on the modem first the the router (if you're using one) then the computers.
check if the cables are properly connected, try to use another cable for hardwired computers. for wireless computers, make sure that it's connecting to the correct wireless network and you are using the correct wireless password (wpa/wep)
if you want to check your wireless settings, just log in to your router's page by typing http://192.168.0.1 on the address bar of your web browser. by default the username is admin and there's no password. you will be prompted by the router's page, go to the wireless section and check the router settings are the same with what the wireless computers are using

hope this'll help you but if you still have a problem, just give me your network setup (i.e. brand of the modem, router, number of computers and if PCs are hardwired or wireless)

cioa!

Try to ping the ip of another computer, to know if what is the ip of the computer. Type in the run CMD and the dos windows type ipconfig and look for the ip address. to ping the other ip address to probe that your setup of lan is ok. type PING the ip address of computer and hit enter if you see reply from it means your network connection is ok but if see request time out the setup configuration of your network have a problem. If still not working try to reset the reset button of the router to his default value in try to connect

Make sure that your wireless is set to access point only and not firewall mode.

Maybe you should use same brand of your adapter, use belkin wireless router.

Most of the router has a manual attachment, it will teach you how to configure the router..

To setup your router
first check..
Connect the Broadband modem to the computer using an Ethernet cable without the router installed and make sure that the Internet connection is active. If it is not, contact your Internet Service Provider. If it can go online,
to setup connection..
Step 1:
Connect the Broadband modem to the router’s WAN or Internet port.
Step 2:
Connect the computer to any available numbered port (1, 2, 3 or 4).
NOTE: In this example, we’ll connect the computer to port number 3.
Step 3:
Make sure the power adapter is plugged to an available power outlet.
Step 4:
check if you are able to go online wired..
if not your router has to be configured first,
