Hi,
I have a dell inspiron 3800, sort of old laptop with win98SE. I have installed the WPC54G linksys wireless card, and it connects to my wireless network with very good reception yet i cant access the internet. The router is a netgear router/modem all in one. The laptop cannot ping ther route. Ive tried changing my TCP/IP settings as my network uses DHCP and a default gateway (192.168.0.1). No luck.
Incindentally, once i uninstall the driver and utility of the wireless card and try reinstallling after a few boots, the setup autorun tells me it is alrady installed
Thus i have to use the setup.exe on the CD. Odd.
THanks for any help.
