Wireless Router Problem

[macjones]

Okay I am stumped and so are the nice people at belkin.
I have a belkin router thats wireless option has for some reason
stopped working. I use a G3 ibook, and a Powermac G4 desktop.
I get my signal from the wireless router I have connected to the desktop.
I have the modem from time warner hooked into the router and the router hooked into the desktop. I can get onto the internet on the desktop but as of last sunday I cannot connect using my ibook. How is it that one can work using the router and the other cannot?

if waht you are saying is that your desktop is connected via ethernet then a reset to yout router will do the trick, happens to me a lot ^^u, just be careful that your ip and dns is asigned automatically everytime you connect, if your provider has given you an static ip you will have to input al of this info into your router. Try a reset.

oh yes, and after you do the reset, connect one pc at a time, not sure but might help prevent ip confilcts, wich btw reminds me, manually asign ips to each computar to prevent this problem in the future.

Well the problem I think is getting the ibook to find the belkin router.

In the past I would go through diagnostics and as I went through the steps
I would see the belkin as an option. Or even if I had the comp. scan for prefered connections it would find the connection as my connection.

Now I will find belkin click on it, and it still can't connect.
