Synbad, You are having the exact same problem I had with mine. Dikla's solution is only part of it. First, un-install D-links software and un-hook the modem cable from the 54G. Use the control panel use the add/remove programs link, look for the D-link software if its there. If not there should be an uninstall in it's drop down menu when you clink on it from the start up menu. Shut down with re-start. After you are back to your desktop, turn off your "wireless" connection on the computer if it has one. Re-install the D-link software. Follow their instructions very carefully. You'll be asked to power up your 54G first but not plug it into the computer. Make sure all the lites on the panel of the 54G are as they should be per the manual. Plug in the 54G when the software instructs you to do so. Not before that or the computer will not recognize it. After it has asked you to connect to the computer, it will ask you to open your browser. Remember you are not hooked up to the Internet and should not be. You will be instructed to type in an address something like ***http://192.168.0.1 or something simiular. That will connect you to the 54G. You'll enter "admin" and a password the manual gives you. Your manual gives all the rest of the instructions which are easy to follow. Only after you have successfully connected to the Internet do you begin to do any firmware updating. If that is done wrong you really have a problem so don't worry too much about that for now. This should fix it for you as it did for me. Let us konw how it goes. We are all here to help.

Connot connect to century link with wiresless

assuming you've connected previously without error REBOOT both your computer and your router. give a few minutes for your router to boot up, connect and start broadcasting the wifi. if your system doesn't connect after that, scan it for malware and spyware with reputable software

I can not get my wireless connection to work on my t42. wireless diagnostics is telling me wireless disabiled

There is a small switch on most laptops that enables the wiresless card. Make sure this switch is in the on position....there is usually a yellow led that comes on when it's in the on position. You might also look around in Networks Connections if that doesn't work, and see what's going on there. Hope this helps!

My acer 3680 is not detecting my wiresless router connection and I can not get online. I know the router works. How do I set it up to get the connection.

you can configure the wireless settings of your router first by going into it's GUI. to go there just open your command prompt and type in ipconfig/all, then look for Default Gateway. open an internet exlporer or any browser and type in the numbers you found in the default gateway in the address bar. when you're done configuring the wireless settings of your router you can now try and connect to your wireless network...

hope this helps....

CAN A 2WIRE DSL ROUTER WORK WITH A CABLE INTERNET CONEECTION

The 2wire dsl modem/router cannot be use with a another cable modem , since this 2wire device is also a modem/router and its made for the DSL conenction that's why it wont work with Cox cable, the best thing that you can do is to ask Cox to give a wireless modem/router like this 2wire so you can still use the wireless connection of your computer..

Hope that helps..........

2wire Wireless router not working w/Comcast cable modem

Its almost impossible to connect a 2wire DSL router with a Cable modem. They dont go hand in hand.
Although you can connect the outgoing ethernet wire from the modem in the last ethernet plug on the back of the router and then have the ethernet connections coming from the router. But not wireless. and if you find a way, contact me at [email protected]
