I'm running Vista ultimate, I have a comcast internet conection that works fine. Today I decided to connect my wireless linksys router 2.4 (802.11g). I also installed Network Magic to manage my wireless network. The hard wire conections are right (from the modem to the router (internet) and from the router (1-4) to the p.c.) The lights are all on for the router meaning power, internet and ethernet. I logged in to the router usser name blank password admin. So I feel everything is right but I do not get internet. Network magic says trying to connect but it wont. If I unhook the router and plug back into the p.c. everything works fine with the internet. then network magic say you have connected to your network. Oh yes I did turn off the fire wall. does anyone have any Ideas? Thanks..............
