i have spent the WHOLE day trying to make my new acer laptop connect with the netgear router that runs on our ancient desktop!!! i have got NOWHERE!!!!!!!!!!
on my acer laptop 'netgear' is visible full connection, the works. but will not connect AT ALL!!!!
i found the MAC number and registered it to the netgear router....still hasn't worked.
could the fact that the laptop runs on VISTA be a problem as all the other comps in my house run on XP?
please help because i will not be beaten by this but i actually have no clue what i am doing:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Are you trying to connect with IPv4 or IPv6?

Eh. Idk... I used to have a Netgear that ran perfectly...

On the off chance... Internet is still working on the main comp throughout this, right??
