I have just recently got SBC Yahoo! DSL.. i bought a netgear router so i can use it on my two computers. one is a laptop already with a wireless card in it. and the second computer is a desktop pc. on the desktop pc, it shows that i am connected, i check my connection status and all it shows is a number for "sending" and a zero for "receiving" i try to use internet explorer, but it will not let me and i am connected. I have been struggling to get this wireless internet to work for the past 3 days, and received minimum success. Everything else seems to be intact, i just am unable to connect wirelessly. same for the laptop. it says i am connected but does not let me use internet explorer or any form of connnection to the WWW. if anyone knows anything i should check or any form of help.. it would greatly be appreciated.. thanks
