I am not familiar with the Motorola software or router. For Linksys and
D-Link routers, you open their management console in a Internet Explorer
window and log in. There is no software needed on the PC. On a Linksys,
you type in 192.168.1.1 into the address bar. On a D-Link, you type in
192.168.0.1 into the address bar.
The default userID for Linksys is left blank and the password is admin. I
think the default userID for D-Link is admin and the password is left blank.
Of course, the first thing you should do is to change the password.
The channel selection should be obvious within the wireless setup portion of
the program. On Linksys models, it is set with a combo box. Again, the
standard defines channels 1 through 11. All channels should be available.
There is no changes made on any of the computers. They will detect and use
the channel set by the router.

Hi
All I know is that it is Motorola
How do we go about changing the channel? Is it all pretty obvious once we
open the router program? Do we change the channel for each pc or changing
the channel will automatically change all five?
thanks

Strange that you can sit side by side and only one computer has problems.
I would still try to change the wireless channel on the router. What
brand of router do you have?
I am fortunate, one of my neighbors has an unsecure wireless router.
When I have wireless problems, I can try to connect to their router to
help determine if my laptop wireless hardware / software is failing or my
router is failing.

Is the laptop that is having problems further away from the router than
the other computers connecting wirelessly? If you press JAWS + F11,
does it it indicate that you are connected? My guess is that you are
getting interference. Perhaps you have neighbors that have a router
that is effecting throughput on your connection. You can log onto your
router and configure it to use a different channel. Channels 1 through
11 are available. Most people leave the default channel set, therefore
it can get pretty crowded. Just try any of the other channels. You
will not need to change anything on any of the computers.
There are other things like some cordless phones or microwaves that use
the same 2.4 GHz frequency and cause interference as well. Try to keep
these devices some distance away from the equipment.

Hi
We have five pc's connected to a network here and are having trouble
with one laptop in particular not always connecting. It is always
erly evening and will eventually connect if we persist but we may have
to wait hor an hour or more. the laptop shows that it is connected
and that signal strength is good but when we try to connect we get
that normal screen about unable to connect to the internet.
It will work fine all day and we have not messed around with any
settings as far as we know, as i am typing this it will not connect
whilst two other pc's and mine are all connected.
Any ideas what we can try? It seems so odd hthat it works fine for
most of the time except for the early evening hours, especially when
all the other pc's are just connecting fine.
Appreciate any advice.
graham
