Actiontec wireless router - not connecting to the internet

Ok, so I am visiting India, and i want to use the actiontec GT704WG so our laptops can have wireless internet acsess. The computer here is connected to a Sterlite ethernet router - and it works fine. But when i connect my actiontec so other laptops can connect - it fails. Internet won't work. All the wires are plugged in properly. Is it some IP address issue? help!

    We have tried to set up a laptop both with wired and wireless. The laptop finally times out with both wired and wireless, and the system assigns an Automatic IP Address. This is on a Windows 7 OS Dell Inspiron. The computer has no issues logging in on my hard wire network, nor does it have an issues logging in else where. No errors reported in the hardware manager. Also, I have not been able to login with my own smart phone or tablet. However, others can get on to the Q1000 with issues. I already checked the Q1000 for MAC Filtering and it was disabled. Any thoughts?

    Thanks,
    Mike W.

Using the Actiontec GT704WG as just a router with comcast's cable modem. Seem to have a configuration problem. I am not sure what I am doing wrong (connections, configurations, etc) Devices are recognizing...

The laptop/computer's wireless card may not have the latest wireless card driver installed or it is not enabled and working. Check Device Manager to see if is is working and enabled. I suggest you install the latest wireless card driver.
Next check the wireless card configuration, it needs to have the wireless router's settings, ie SSID and encryption etc.

Actiontec GT704WG doesnt connect to internet

HI! all your computer is connected except for one, you are connected to to the local network but cant get an internet connection, I dont see any problem with your wireless connection bcoz you are connected to the lan, check the security settings of your browser on your windows vista, go to internet option and security, lower it down to medium security, so that you can access the internet or try using other browser like firefox or google chrome.. check your firewall settings as well on your windows vista..

Go to http://www.actiontec.com/support/index.php and see if you can download the manual. You will need it to know how to set it up with the information provided by your DSL ISP.

No wireless connection after powercycle

Sounds to me as if the Actiontec GT704WG has died. If it is still under warranty, get it serviced. If it is not under warranty, You can try to find en electronic friend to take a look at it. If you do not have such a friend, Maybe someone else here can help you. But you might want to consider a new unit.

Wireless router on but not working

Who is your ISP? I belive what you have is a modem router. If the interney light is not lit then it only mean that the actiontec is bridged and you need to use a dialer on your pc to connect to your ISP. If the internet light is lit, no need for a dialer just connect it straight to your pc and check your internet.
