Re: WMWifiRouter - Need help
I just set mine up and it works fine.
You will need to do some troubleshooting, first check if it is PC related, ie try another laptop if you have access to one. Start eliminating possible causes. |

Re: WMWifiRouter - Need help
Well, oddly the $4000 Dell m90 picks up the wifi network (which is the original computer i was testing with), but the brand new out of the box Dell D830 cant pick up the network at all. I even have my phone sitting on top of the keyboard! Hmm...interesting.

KB0802015: Computer will not connect to WMWifiRouter
It is sometimes tricky to connect your computer to the mobile device running WMWifiRouter - especially when you have just changed your network settings. Windows XP is especially problematic in this. It is important to note that many operating systems cache wireless network information even if you have removed them or refreshed the settings. If your computer cannot find the wireless network, or can not connect to it, the advised procedure is: * Quit WMWifiRouter * Restart mobile device * Remove any wifi networks related to WMWifiRouter from your computer. On Windows XP, this can be done by going to "View Available Wireless Networks", "Change the order of preferred networks", selecting the network name in the new window and pressing remove. * Disable and re-enable wifi on your computer ("Repair" under Windows XP) * Start WMWifiRouter and "Connect" * Searching for the network on your computer - you may have to refresh several times for the network to be found, and you may have to disconnect / reconnect or quit / restart WMWifiRouter a few times. After you have successfully bonded the computer with WMWifiRouter once, it usually keeps working without needing the above procedure unless you reinstall the software or change network settings. With the latter, the computer will often use the old settings even though you have told it to use different settings. |

Re: WMWifiRouter - Need help
That is odd. I have had some trouble getting connected in the past and I just blew out the SID that it created and created my own from scratch and it started working again. You might try doing that.

Re: WMWifiRouter - Need help
Ok, I got it working with 1 of my computers here. THANK GOD. So I know it works. I just gotta get it to snuggle up to my m90, cause thats what I need it to run on. Thanks!
Edit: Anyone tried to play a game like World of Warcraft through this? Poker? Anything? This thing is about to be my full time workaround for unfiltered internet access here at work (stupid firewall) |
