I just installed a WG311 V3 on my desktop and
got a strong signal indication but no internet
connection. I have a Linksys WRT54GS wireless router
and the WG311 configuration is correct as far as
I can tell. I know the router is working
because I can connect with my wireless laptop.
Appreciate any helpful suggestions.

Check your WG311 computer is connected to the ssid
name configured on your linksys wireless router. By
default the ssid name of linksys wireless router
is Linksys . Disable the XP firewall. Go to
start run, type cmd and go the command prompt.
Type in ipconfig and check the ipaddress of your
computer. Try to ping the default gateway (DG)
address (By default it should be 192.168.1.1), If
you are able to ping DG, then ping 4.2.2.2, if
u get reply then ping www.yahoo.com. If you are
NOT able to ping yahoo, try pinging this address
216.239.57.99 (Google's IP). If you are able to
ping this IP then it there is a problem
resolving the DNS from ypur computer. So, Wireless
Lan properties, go to it's TCP/IP and assingn
static DNS as 4.2.2.2 (Prefered DNS) and 4.2.2.1
(Alternate DNS). Aplly the settings and u'll be
able to open a web page now.
