Now that the router has arrived (though my line hasn't yet been broadbanded), I've removed ICS from the dial-up connection.

I have a feeling I might have screwed up here, but maybe not. I was working on a Netgear DG834G wireless ADSL router and a Netear WG602 v3 wireless access point. Both have the latest firmwares installed. Both are running on the same channel. The have different SSIDs. I thought I would simply have to go into the WG602, switch on Wireless point-to-point bridge mode, enter the MAC address of the...

I currently have a fixed wired installation at home. The broadband comes via a cable modem which is attached to a NAT router which then carries connections to various rooms in the house. There are a couple of Windows desktop machines and a Linux web/file/mail server connected at all times. I've configured the NAT router so that only the web & mailservers are open to the outside world. The...

I no longer use a software firewall (OutPost) and the router is leaky and doesn't stop errant programs from connecting to the net. I sometimes want to block these for a short time.

Just had a mate on the phone and has the following problem. His partneer has a nice new HP NC4000 and they have put a W400 Mini PCI WiFi card into it. He is using a BT Voyager 2000 modem router on TalTalk He also has an old Tosh laptop with a 54g PCMCIA card in it and that works fine in WiFi with the router so all appears well there.
