The easiest way I have found, is to shut down and completely turn off all your computers. Plus your ethernet cord from the modem to your Router, but leave the Router ONLY unplugged from the power supply. Also unplug the modem. After the modem is Online completely, THEN plug your Router back into the power supply. Wait 2 minutes, then turn your computers on. After you have ran the disk that came with it, and if the laptop STILL doesnt find your wireless, go to your network connections (usually in control panel, or start menu in Vista) click on the wireless network connection, then right click and go to 'disable'. Wait 15 seconds then click on it again, then right click, and this time hit 'enable'. This should renew the IP address and find your router. There are a few different ways let me know if this does not work for you.
Have a great night!

Hi there. There are plenty of packages out there but try Activtrak
Not sure if there are any limitations but worth a look if you ask me.

hello....i m living in hostel nd connected with more than 7 wifi in whole day nd night on a single lappy i want to check my over all uses of data of lappy

cheak your router for i.p user i.d
it look like this 192.181.1.1
enter the i.p exactly how it found in router to your computer browser
where you can input www.example.com, use the i.p instead
once you click enter, your router page will display log in and see what you are looking for
if you find it difficult to do it try to whatsapp or call me on 2348065558146
