Hi,

I have a Belkin ADSL modem router connected to my BT-line. I have Tiscali Broadband. I have my main computer in another room with a USB wireless adaptor, also from Belikin. I am running with 128-bit WEP and at first, the setup seemed to be okay. However, I am now finding that whenever I boot up my PC (router is always on), I have to log into the router from my PC and manually connect to the internet. I've checked the proxy settings in the manual against my actual setup and it's fine.

Can anyone shed any light on this.

Thanks . . . IIB

Thanks. I resolved the issue with the help of Belkin technical support. There is a Dial on-demand option which I hadn't seen on one of the router screens and this was untidcked. I would have expected it to be checked when using the default configuation.

Anyhow, thanks for all the helpful suggestions . . . IIB
