i have a slight problem with my new wireless
router (speedtouch 585). When i connect to the
router using an ethernet cable i can access the
internet no problem. however, when i try to
connect to the internet with wireless I can see
the web page for my router and make modifications
to the set up etc but i cannot access the
internet.......why on earth is this so?
i have set up wireless with WEP, using Win XP
SP2 on a fairly beefy PC.
thnaks for your time

Hello,
did you try these tools (Dr SpeedTouch,SpeedTouch
Diagnostics) for connection problems,also try disabling
ethernet and firewall on the pc,check the wep
setting on both.

thanks for reply - problem down to my own
stupidity.....previous router settings had given a manual
IP address and i have now set it up so
that IP addresses are given automatically.
