ok everyone?? i'm having big problems i have a pc and is connected wireless to a wanadoo router(this is on windows xp) i've bought a bt wireless card for a laptop which is on windows millenium. i can get the laptop to connect to the router but cant connect to wanadoo internet. has anybody got any ideas how to fix it??
i've tried to change the internet setting but there is no option for wireless?? but maybe its something else that's wrong??
i rang wanadoo technical support but they have no help for the mill edition only xp(useless i know)
they gave me the microsoft helpline number but only open mon-friday(another great help)
thanks

It might be something as simple as the MAC Filtering that has it blocked.
Enter the router interface and find the MAC Filter setting and add the MAC Address off the wireless card.

If this doesn't fix it supply all the info. as possible.

I am assuming you have DSL.
Are you coming off the DSL Modem to a Router or is it an All-in-One model??
Make & Model of the router??
Make & Model of Wireless Card??
Did you say you have a WinXP system set up and running??

the laptop was set up for use with a telephone line
the router is an wanadoo A7A2
wireless card is an BT voyager 1065
yes i have the windows xp set up on my pc with the wireless unit supplied by wanadoo
what did you mean by MAC??
thanks for your help so far

I can find any info. on that router.

If this is a all-in-one unit supplied by your ISP you need to enter the router interface to enter the MAC Address (Media Access Control) off the Wireless Card your ISP should be able to tell you how to do this.

The only equipment I see Wanadoo selling is Speedtouch equipment.

Look closely at your DSL modem and see what it says (usually on the bottom).
