| 1358749 | 2013-11-04 08:55:00 | Hi I've purchased a TP-Link 8980 modem (thank you all for advice on a previous thread) and I've connected it via the set up CD. It works fine when connected via the cord but I can't get the wireless connection to function. Any ideas on how I could get it to work wirelessly would be appreciated. Thanks |

| 1358752 | 2013-11-04 09:40:00 | Go to the menu / control panel / network and sharing center. Change adapter settings. Select the wireless one / wireless properties. Click on the security tab. Put in the encryption and the password you put in the router then OK I take it whatever you're trying to connect from does have wireless? |
