| 1201066 | 2011-05-10 08:08:00 | Have someone staying at my place with an Acer laptop with a Atheros AR5B97 Wireless Network Adapter. Couldn't connect to my Netcomm (forget model but the one everyone suggests) router via wifi. Long story short I changed the setting in the 192.168.1.1 to broadcast 802.11b/g (mixed mode) instead of 802.11b/g/n (mixed mode) and could then connect. Even though I updated the drivers is that network adapter simply unable to connect to the n network? My laptop connects no problem. |

If you have filtering on MAC address enabled then your modem won't be allowing the new connection. Otherwise did you set up a password (or phrase) that is embedded in your own machine to allow it to connect freely? |

Otherwise did you set up a password (or phrase) that is embedded in your own machine to allow it to connect freely? Yes to security. No filtering MAC address. Nothing special set up to only allow my machine. Pretty sure I had another pc connected to it at some point with no issues. |

| 1201072 | 2011-05-10 23:01:00 | It's the top two options (can't remember the ones below it) 802.11b/g/n (mixed mode) 802.11b/g (mixed mode) Top one is the default. Don't think there is one that's just g and n? |
