Hello,
I got the following setup:
Wireless Lan Gateway: 3Com 3CRWE454G72 XP Client with Wireless USB adapter: US Robotics MaxG USB adapter USR805421
The problem:
The GW and adapter connect but I can't get outside of my system networking wise..
I can ping local address but nothing outside of the client system.
IP settings are correct (both in same subnet and correct netmask applied).
I'm not sure where to look for the cause. Is the client not correctly configure or do I have another problem on my network.
Another system (laptop with a usb wlan adapter) has no problem connecting and using the network/internet. So I strongly suspect the client with the USR adapter. Can't find anything wrongly configured on the AP side.
Also, small question. the 3Com gw/ap has an encryption tab in it's menu but when I try to click on it it says 404 not found so probably no encryption available. Is it easy to add? and does it support WPA or only WEP?
Regards,
Walther.
