[LazyGregg]

I tried different network cables and ports, the computer that cant go online can check the settings on the router via http://192.168.1.1

try ip addresses 192.168.2.1:88 or 192.168.0.1:88 other than that upgrade to windows xp it configures it for you

Hi LazyGregg,

You might want to check your Firmware version. And, update it to version 1.47. It solved this same problem for me.

Good luck.

This is how I solved this problem:

1. Turn off all computers
2. Turn off router
3. Turn off modem

Wait 5 min. lets the modem drop all sync

4. Turn on Modem & let sync
5. Turn on router
6. Turn on all computers & presto it will work.

Did you turn on the main computer that is connected to the router first. Not sure it makes a difference but this is how I solved my issue.

PS: Have you tried switching the plugin ports to see if you can get the other computer to work....may be a bad router...

Another opinion:
Reinstall the lastest firmware for your router, prior to updating go into the settings and disable UPnP which is located on the router "password tab". It is okay to leave this setting disabled if you want.
