    hey guys, I was wondering if you could help me here.
    I got a netopia 2247NWG router and Im having trouble getting my wireless working.

    The wireless adapter im using is a Netgear WG111T.

    Any ideas where I might be going wrong?

    thanks.

    You're going to need to provide a lot more detail than that. What errors are you seeing? What encryption did you set? DHCP or static addressing etc etc.

    well first of all the router works through the ethernet cable, so I no the internet is working.
    when i use the wireless though it just wont connect.
    It says limited to no connectivity. no error message comes up though.

    If you're using a key you must have the security set to WEP?

    You really should change to WAP, then you can use a paraphrase & it's a bit more secure.
