[Strawbs]

how do you connect to your isp? what os? what hardware?

[akizum]

p4 3ghz 1024
xp sp1
(sager laptop) :network adapter
: realtec RTL8169/8110
dsl connection thru hub

[Sterling_Aug]

Delete and reinstall the NIC.

Check the drivers.

[Strawbs]

also if there is a way to power down\reset the dsl connection (for about a minute) you should try that too!

[dajogejr]

Ditch that hub, get a router.

It's probably causing conflicts with other PCs and/or objects on your network.

[Midknyte]

Why do you have a hub in the first place? are you trying to share your connection with multiple systems? if so, you really need a router as dajogejr said.

[The Lodge]

Some DSL connections you only need a switch\hub to hook multiple computers to one connection. So he doesn't necessarily need to "ditch" his hub, and go and spend money to get a router. Try what Sterling_Aug suggested and see if that works. I’m not sure if your DSL company uses static or dynamic ip addresses. If you’re getting on-line with multiple computers at the same time, most likely you have a static ip address. If it was dynamic you would need a router to accomplish that.

it really depends on the ISP. some ISPs will only give 1 IP. You have the option of purchasing more IPs, though. we're all grasping at straws here. Akizum, if you want help, you need to be more specific.

[lito pospos]

Realese and renew work only in dynamic.

i installed the driver and it works fine (i have a signal ,if click on the signal icon the connection window comes up sad connected ,the led light blinking on the card so everything looks fine.

i don't want to connect to networks and hubs ect...

the pcs are not on a network we just use the wireless for internet
not to communicate each other

Did you have a different setup prior to setting up this wireless LAN card?

Some ISP's do use MAC id to setup internet. If you did change from an old to a newer lan card then you must call your ISP and inform them of the change and let them configure the new MAC id.

Otherwise,

this

[akizum]

thanks

so everyone who goes to a coffe house ,and try to connect to the coffehouse provided wireless network with his laptop have to call the ISP provider ? ??

:confused: :confused:

[kwebb]

The coffee house is the provider. So your saying your trying to use a hotspot at a coffee house and you haven't asked them for help? Seriously? Could be WEP, could be MAC filtering, could be the SSID isn't broadcasted. Could be alot of things. They know how their system is setup right? Could be a good idea to ask them.
