Hi there, i have just bought a new router
(phillips 11g true turbo base unit). I am very
new to wireless internet and am pretty much self
taught with anything to do with computers... Anyways
i have established a connection between my wifi
notebook and router (my laptop uses a ralink rt2500
wireless lan card, not sure if thats relevant).
It states that my status is excellent. However i
still cannot connect to the internet. I wouldn't
normally have a clue why except when i tried to
sign into msn messenger it allows you to
troubleshoot why you cannot connect. When i do this
it says its because my default gateway appears
offline?? When i am connected to my router via
the ethernet cable i can login to my router and
it appears that everything is enabled and and all
addresses (for example, WAN IP, IP address, primary
and secondary dns) seem present.. I really would
like to know what i am doing wrong and hoping
that it is something really simple. As i said i
am very new to this so any help would be
very much appreciated. Thanks, Charlie.
