Hiya Guys
I have a BT Voyager 1500 wireless router and that in turn plugs into a BT Voyager 205 ADSL router. I have a BT Voyager 1060 wireless card connected to my laptop as well.
For some strange reason tonight i was on the internet tonight and then suddenly the signal dropped from the router, so i couldnt pick up the signal for the wireless router cos my laptop couldnt find it which frustrated me no ends.
Ive spent the last 2 hours trying to get it connected back to the wireless router and in the end ive given up and reset it the wireless router, this has made it show up on the laptop again. Yippee i thought, BUT now although i can connect to the wireless router it wont send any information so that i can recieve web pages. All i get is the normal Microsoft page saying this page couldnt be found.
Ive had to plug the ethernet cable into the laptop to get back onto the internet if any one has any ideas on what i can do would be most appreciative.
I have Windows XP service pack 2.
Many thanks
James
