Please log in for more thread options I am connecting to the internet thru LAN in the buildign I live in. I have only one socket working, so I want to make a wireless connection. I have a Tp-Link wireless router. I plugged the cable into th working socket and the WAN port of the router. My laptop detects the router in the wireless networks (as a securit yenabled network), but I can not connect to the network nor ping the router on the IP address given in the manual (192.168.1.1). Router config on http://192.168.1.1 is not working as well. Please help me make it work. Thank you | |||||||||||||

If something like 192.168.mmm.nnn, then your building is on a NAT/PAT router, and you'll probably need to configure your Tp-Link wireless router as a wireless access point, as described in the How To wiki below. Since the Tp-Link wireless router has security enabled, you'll only be able to connect wirelessly with matching security. Check the user guide for how to hard reset the Tp-Link wireless router back to factory default settings. Or, if it has wired LAN port(s), try using a wired connection. -- Best regards, FAQ for Wireless Internet: <http://Wireless.wikia.com>

The router has a reset button which should get it back to the factory settings but pressing it as per manual makes no difference as far as security enabled. There are 4 LAN ports at the back of the router. So what should I do? I am still clueless... thank you > --
