I'm trying to set up a new wireless network on a TP-Link TL-MR3020 wireless router. I'm using Windows 7 starter, (laptop is new too) but I can't get past where it asks for an 8 digit pin.

Why have you two routers connected to the same network?
1. TL-MR3020 Portable Wireless N Router
2. Three ZTE MF730M dongle (router).
The problem is the router does not know which route to choose, so remove one of them and it should stop dropping out.

Remotely would imply a different building or location. What exactly are you trying to accomplish? Do you mean hook it up in one room and record and watch shows in another? Or over the internet? Give more info.

im also facing that type of problem on tplink TL_WR340GD

you can get the manuals of how to configure tp-link tl-wa730re..just go to google and type free tp-link tl-wa730re manuals.

put it on fire ur product :@

i have used a similar adapter on windows 7 as well as on ubuntu 10.04 (linux), and it detects it upon restart without any external drivers.

try on a system with any of these to confirm that the adapter is good. this could be a hardware fault.

also, try changing the card slot as there could be a problem with the slot.

if it works fine on these, then make sure you are using the correct drivers (the ones exactly for this device and not for another similar device)

It is ok if the driver is not digitally signed. There's no need to worry.

To enable the adapter:

1. Click on the Windows Start button
2. Type in "network"
3. Open "Network and Sharing Center"
4. On the left bar, click on "Change Adapter Settings"
5. Select your wireless adapter
6. Right click on the wireless adapter then select Enable.

If you cannot select Enable, it means your adapter is already enabled. The adapter has a gray icon due to it not being connected to a router.

Greetings - Most likely the router is setup with a certain security type, such as WEP or WPA of which there are several types each.

Your laptop and Ipad have to be setup for the same kind of security as the router then the security key will work.

If you setup the router you have to log back into the router settings and see what kind of security is setup and what the login password is. If you didn't setup the router the person who did has to tell you what the security settings on your devices should be.

Good Luck and Thank you for using Fix Ya.

I have the same problem. Some people says that its because of interference from other neighbors' wireless signals or any other in the surrounding etc.You can go to Router Properties and change the CHANNEL to 6 or 11 and observe any changes.

Your friend is able to go online using the same wireless network. that means the wireless network is working properly and there might be a problem with your computer .
You said that you can connect to the wireless network but you can not go online.
Check the IP address and the default gateway of the computer.
Try to ping the router and DNS server and check what happens.
Make sure that there is no static IP address on the computer.
