Hi, I have an MSI router connected to a desktop pc. As an OS i am using Windows Vista on both my desktop pc and laptop. My problem is that when I am trying to ping my router from my laptop ( ping 192.168.1.1 ) and I am having a request time out with a 100% loss. On the other hand pinging from the desktop pc is being successful. (but router is connected to the desktop pc and obviously internet. ). Also I tried to switch off the firewall on my laptop, but still I am not having success when pinging.Also it maybe useful to note that on the router configuration I am not using MAC or IP filtering. Any help please? Thank you. :)

Jump to PostCan you use the internet on your laptop?
Can you access the router menu by putting the address (192.168.1.1) in the address bar in a web browser?
Jump to PostWhat is your laptop IP address? Does it begin 192.168.x.x, like your router? Is the default gateway the same address as your router?
