Router help

[pele]

Could any of you wonderful It people help me out. I am trying to get my son's X box, i pod, my i pod and our Wii to work off the same wireless router with no luck at all. It is a netgear router and if you could help it would be FANTASTIC. Thanks.

Whats the problem? Any more info on where your failing exactly?

 

Have you got a laptop connected wirelessly?

[pele]

No laptop, cannot get X box to pick up wireless internet at all and i pods do work within house but poorly at times. The wii is not picking up wirless router either

[saint_stevo]

im guessing you have the wireless adapter for the x box........................?

[pele]

Yes indeed!

[saint_stevo]

and the x box doesn't find the wireless network at all?

 

Where are the devices in relation to the router?

 

Specific model of netgear router?

Do you have anything you can physically connect to the router via ethernet? You need to check your router settings.

Saint Stevo sorry occupied with Wembley and all that...yes it is asking for the WEp code...where would this be? Thanks

[GenevaSaint]

You should be supplied with a out of the box wep code. On sky routers the intial code is printed on the back of the router.

[pele]

I have put in wep code on x box and still not working stating is dhcp enabled and is my router finding mac address of 002248d33995 where do I find these?

[saint_stevo]

on machine attached to the router (wired or wireless)

 

do the following-

 

Click- Start, then in the run box type in cmd in the box that pops up, type in ipconfig and make note of your default gateway.

 

Then come back to me and we will go to the next step.

 

also, are you southampton based at all?
