I set up my wireless netgear router with my desktop pc fine. On my desktop, I have a comcast modem and comcast high speed. I'm trying to get my laptop to go wireless but I cannot get the router to work with my laptop for nothing. I notice my network name on the wireless network list on my laptop, but when i click connect it wont connect, it just says 'acquring network address', and I noticed that the IP address, and subnet mask say 0 all the way across on both of them, and I know that there are supposed to be numbers there. Could that be whats wrong? How can I get those numbers into my laptop to get the router to work? Please help!
Answers:
Go on your desktop computer, open your web browser. Go to whatismyip.com copy your ip. Paste it into your address bar. Now you should be in your router settings. If it asks for a password and username by default it is user: admin password: admin. Go to the wireless tab and paste your ip in the window that says ip.
if you go on the internet and tyoe in ur ip adress you can conect to , and do you have wireless router on ur laptop??
