Access to Wireless lan from 802.11g adapter BUT NOT from 802.11badapters

Dec 16, 2005 0 Replies

I have resently upgraded my Linksys router BEFW11S4 to a new WRT54GX Now I'am having trouble getting my 802.11b wireless network adapters to access the LAN.



I have the following scenario:


1) Two computers connected directly (wire) to the router - everything here OK (internet access, shared network ressources etc.)


2) One computer with a Netgear 802.11g wireless adapter - everything here OK (internet access, shared network ressources etc.)


3) One Laptop with Centrino Technology running 802.11b wireless - internet connection is ok - BUT NO ACCESS to network ressources


4) One laptop running on an USB 802.11b wireless adapter - internet connection is ok - BUT NO ACCESS to network ressources



I have set up my router to use mixed mode, and several other setting to ensure compatibility for the old b-standard. But nothing seems to work??



NOTES If I connect my laptop directly (cabled) to the router - I can access the network ressources. I did not have any trouble with my old router with mixing 802.11b and



802.11g.

I have ran out of ideas..... maybe someone can help?
