hi guys, I am a newbie so please bear with me, I have a problem with a sweex lc000070 I have scoured the forun=m and see I am not the only one I am trying to run my Laptop and desktop with internet connections I have the old grey NTL modem connected with ethernet cable
I have had it running ok but the laptop keeps losing connection and i get a status report saying "network cable unplugged"
I have tried to get into the sweex set up page by typing in the 192.168.123,254 but all i get is the page cannot be displayed message i have trie it from the laptop too but that tells me unavailable offline, I am sure there must be a simple fix but it has me stumped.
oh and by the way the desktop runs XP pro and the laptop has win 2000 it is not a modern all singing dancing laptop but it has worked on the net before
so it is all hard wired? have you tried a different cable?
is that the correct browser address? to check this goto start run and type cmd then type ipconfig /all
run this and the gateway is the router ip this is what needs to be typed to find the router
