| 519593 | 2007-01-27 02:10:00 | Hi every one ! I have connected my computer with netgear adsl router. Now when I have connected that with usb cable and it is working fine. But when I want to swap that to ethernet cable it says connected but it generates IP address 169.255.0.0 and subnet mask 255.255.0.0 and no default gateway. My routers Ip address is 192.168.0.0 and 255.255.255.0 so it means I suppose to get IP address from range 192.168.0.0. I only get when i connected to usb not with ethernet cable. and I can only surf internet via usb only not with ethernet. Troubleshooting so far. : reinstall the tcp/ip driver change cable. several time enable and disable the connection but no luck so far. reset the router. can any one please guide me what can be the cause. |

| 519598 | 2007-01-29 07:32:00 | Go into network connections and try manually entering the data in, do you remember what your computer's IP address was before it went sour? if so enter all that in. If not, try setting the IP address to 192.168.0.10 for example (but keep away from the low numbers at the end to safe guard against any conflicting IP addresses) Subnet will be automatic, Default gateway 192.168.0.0. You will also have to enter DNS addresses in, just use the Xtra ones for now 202.27.158.40 and 202.27.156.72 That should work, if not try other network ports on the router. EDIT: by reset the router, do you mean back to factory defaults or turn of and on (keeping all the settings) |
