Wireless CPU help!!!

Connection was refused :\


It has 1 antenna. Should I get a Linksys WRT54G Wireless-G Router ???

Fuck the Tide but they did hand us a beating !!!

The connection is probably refused from your laptop. Try it from your desktop PC. If that doesn't work, try http://192.168.0.254 from your desktop

Check the specs for your Dell's wireless nic. Is it 802.11a, 802.11b or 802.11g? Have you connected this laptop to the dlink before successfully?

When I typed ipconfig, a box showed up but then it automatically closed w/o giving me the IP addy

Don't do it from run, do it from a Command line box in accessories

you can't do it in the run box. hit START - RUN then type cmd and hit ENTER. Then type ipconfig.

Not sure. It is built in with Centrino mobile technology. No, never connected a wireless to this router. My gfriend was using a Lynksys before and it worked.

From what I can tell the DI-614+ is 802.11b only. The 8600 appears to be 802.11g - translation: if i'm right this ain't gonna work no matter what.

So the answer lies within...

What is the best router? The Lynksys that I labeled above?
