Beklin wireless router help
 

hi, got a beklin cable router (got it today) and connected it all up and stuff.

got wireless pci card in my computer, can connect to the internet using the router.
have had no trouble setting up WEP encryption for my wireless network and setting the routers password.

however, here is the problem.
if u use internet explorer its fine, runs without a problem,.

however, if i use any other program, the router kinda shuts down. the all the lights on the front go off except for the modem light (even the power light goes off) and you cannot find it when i search for wireless networks.
but when i unplug and plug it back in again it comes alive again.

ive tried updating the firmware for the router, but it wont let me, says the firmware is not compatible with my router. (even though on the website it says it is)


any ideas ?

any idea what could be up with it ?

oh and outlook express seems to work ok.
msn says it cannot connect .. . please try later.

What other program would that be ?

File sharing are we :shock:

DAP download accelerator plus causes the router to lock up.
outlook express seems to be ok.

absolutely not ;)

:^o



:lol:

Have a look on MTU settings. Do a google search with MTU blueyonder etc...

thats gone over my head.

typed into google MTU ntl:world.

but dont really know what im looking for

ive tried accesing the router using my laptop and a ethernet cable, but no luck with that either, i can get into the router and change its settings, but no internet related programs work at all.


im tempted to throw the thing against a wall in a min.

Besides throwing it at a wall, if its only internet related programs and application have any firewall settings been changed (whether it be software or hardware as in router configuration)
