Hi, ted1761.
If you have changed the password for your router from the default password, you will need to reset your router in order to gain access to resetup the router.
The reset switch for this particular model of router is located on the back of the router between the antenna and the LAN jack.
A setup guide for your router can be found here:

Best of luck to you.
~Q

You can easily get the Ip-details from , http://www.ip-details.com/ it is very reliable and accurate.

Hello,

Open your Internet browser, type the address of the router into the URL address bar, and open it. The address is typically in the form of 192.168.X.X. This is the local network address.

Enter the account name and password to open the router setup utility.
Navigate through the setup utility until you find the screen that will let you change the password. You will need to enter the old password to change it.
Decide on a new password that has good security to a hacker. The best password is more than 8 characters and uses both lower case and upper case letters and numbers. Some will allow you to use special characters also. Do not make the password anything that can be found in a dictionary or any date of significance.
Enter the old password in the change password page of the router. When prompted then enter the new password. You will be asked to enter it twice to confirm that the correct password is entered.Immediately, record the new password in some secure location that you can find if you forget it.
Confirm the password change on the router page and log off the router. To check the information and that the router has been setup correctly with the new password, open the router address in the browser again and login with the new information. If you are able to login, you have successfully changed the password.
Take care.

First the wireless card driver needs to be installed in the laptop.
The router's SSID, passphrase (ie encryption) is configured in the router's wireless configuration. This information is needed to configure the wireless card in the laptop so it can connect to the wireless router.

Hi,

At the back of your device next to the WAN Port (internet port) you will find a small hole with a button inside it, turn your device off then press and hold the small button in while switching on your device, keep pressing down on the button for about 5 seconds, that will reset your router to default settings.

Keep Moving Forward.

The company will have to set you up on some sort of a VPN network. Either shoftware on the computer or a hardware VPN from your house to their offices. I would speak with their administrator, as this will all have to be controlled from their end.

Reallyyour internet connection being up and connected is your part. There is nothing you need to do to your equipment to make this work, its all in their hands.

Hey Priscillabur click on that site there, It is a link to the router from the manufacturer's website.

http://www.hawkingtech.com//support/details.php?CatID=33&FamID=79&ProdID=303&Rev=Orig

and click on "Quick Install Guide"

It walks you through on how to set it up.
If you dont have the CD you can type in 192.168.1.254
the log in name is: admin
and password is: admin

and then follow the guide again.

From user manual:
"When the Login pop-up for the Router
appears, please enter “admin” for the
username to access the configuration screen.
(Note: By default, there is no password. If
you cannot get in, please reset the router by
pressing the button next to the antenna on the
back of the router and try logging in again.)"
Follow instruction and let me know if you need a copy of user manual.

OK, check which address ya on... see there are a couple of sets... there is 192.168.0.*, and 10.1.1.* ... or the like sometimes the settings get screwed up..I suggest that ya reset it up all again using the Wizard... then go to each client and run Internet connection manager to establish the connection... Think of the router as a stand alone little PC... that "hands out" the address, to the clients... work methodically thru it & hopefully ya be all good to go?

If it worked for a long time then stopped, there might be a new wireless transmitter around. XP is awful at picking a connection back up once it drops. Does it drop less when the computer is closer to the transmitter? You might try changing the channel that your unit is broadcasting on.

why does it have to do with the AP?? do you have java and javascript activated??what changes have you made when that problem occured??

Can your laptop connect to the internet using an ethernet cable that is connected to the Hawking router?

Check to see if your laptop has a wireless on-off button or switch on the outside of the case. It may even be a combination of two keys "Fn + F2" on some Gateway laptops. When you flip the switch an indicator light of some kind will tell you when your turning the wireless radio on and off. Flick the switch until you're sure the radio is on and try to connect.

Let me know the answers to both of these items.

Yes there is an easier way! Just setup the router as you would any normal setup. Follow the directions to set it up for the first time. What you want to do is have the put in all of your information that you need for it to communicate with your Modem. This will automatically place the router onto your network. Now the part that I believe you want is for this to be secure! Well setup either a WEP or WPA these are both encryption Protocols that will denie access to anyone other than you or someone you allow to access your network wirelessly.
You do not really have to go through all of the trouble of setting up specifics. As long as the two devices communicate the router and the modem will do the rest. I do this everyday in my daily work day! Anymore quesitons please feel free to ask!
