wireless >> Internet explorer is not connecting to internet with wireless connection active

by Roger » Wed, 08 Oct 2003 03:44:44 GMT

I have a Linksys wireless broadband router. My wireless
card shows it is connected to the network, but internet
explorer will not connect. So much for Zero Configuration
Wireless. Any information would be helpful.

Thanks
Roger

You may check on your device to see if you are getting an IP address. I
know that sometimes my router assigns me a funny address which won't allow
it to connect.

It happens to me as well. Sometimes it is enough to renew my DHCP address to
be connected.

You can check if you are really in the network with your computer, if you
can access shares in it, etc. If you are, your problem is probably in the
configuration of Pocket IE. If you don't manage to access shares in the
internal network, it means that something is happening in the Wireless
network configuration or functioning.
