    Hi guys....

    I have a netopia router from Eircom... the internet is working fine when i hard wire it to my laptop using a patch lead but for some reason over the last few weeks it is not working wirelessly....

    I have reset the router and turned it off/on numerous times... Wondering if any of you guys have any hints that might get me back up and running...

    Cheers,,,

    Is the wireless definitely switched on? And is it set to broadcast the ssid?

    Try changing the channel?

    When you search for available networks, does your network appear in the list?
    Do any networks appear in the list?
    Is your laptop able to connect to any other wireless networks?
