I currently have a PC (running windows XP)
connected via ADSL router, with a network hub to
connect my Xbox to the t'internet. I've bought a
Netgear router (DG834v3) and a wireless card to get
shot of the cable between my phone line and
the PC. I'm happy enough to keep the Xbox
connecting via a cable to the netowrk hub and
the PC.
I've been trying to install the wireless PC card
(Netgear WG311), but not been having much luck.
As the instructions say I installed the software
first, then opened the PC and installed the card
into PCI slot 2. On restarting the machine the
Found New Hardware wizard started, but cannot find
the driver software even though the installation CD
is in the CD drive. I contacted the Netgear
helpline last night who were less than helpful.
They had no idea and say that someone will phone
me back tonight, but I'm not holding my breath
. . .
I've now also lost my connection to the internet
via my ordinary router and hub.
I'd be really grateful if anyone could give me
some pointers.
