Well, I have a little problem. Because of my little sister's busted ethernet card and because of my siblings' laptops, my mom and I decided to get a new ethernet card and a wireless router. The router is a D Link Airplus ExtremeG DL-624 802.11g wireless. And the airport on my sister's powerbook can support 802.11g routers. But, when I go through with the steps, (going to http://192.168.0.1), the screen freezes while trying to detect the connection type. And I can't seem to get anywhere without the ethernet cable attached to the laptop.

Now the ethernet card. Well, I went about all the steps-- installing drivers, putting it in properly, etc. etc. But, I have encountered the same problem I got when I got a new ethernet card-- THE CARD WONT RECEIVE, IT WILL ONLY SEND!! However, I seem to have forgotten what I did to make the thing work. Please, someone help me.

1. I'm not familar with the steps of getting a wireless connection on an apple notebook but why do you need to go to 192.169.0.1?

2. the ethernet card is connected to what?

Well, you can forget about the wireless networking, because I got that working.

But the ethernet card is connected to a port in a linksys switch, connected to my linksys 4 port router. I have other computers connected to the switch and the router and they all work. But the new ethernet card seems to be having problems renewing the IP. As I said before, I installed all the drivers for the card, and it IS detected by both the router and the computer. Yet, the computer only sends and occassionally receives. Also, I typed in 'ipconfig' in the command prompt, and it appears that there is already an IP address. (not 192.168.x.x)

do the subnet mask match? if they don't match that might be an issue.

I'm guessing the ethernet card needs a 192.169.x.x address? then I wonder if you have DCHP enabled for the computer?

Well, I fixed the problem on my own. It seems that some Sockets were messed up and I had to delete them and reinstall the TCP/IP connection. You can close this thread now.
