Hi, basically i'm in a bit of a pickle...
First of all my internet provider is TalkTalk. For about a year now i've been using the default router they sent me and i havent had any problems with it. Recently i've ordered a laptop which i would like to use the internet on (wirelessly) so i bought a Netgear DG834G V3 which allows a wireless connection, i know some Netgear models aren't compatible with TalkTalk but i checked and apparenly V3 is so i got that one.
I got it today and plugged it in. I went through the installation disc to make sure everything was plugged in properly, which it was. I then followed an instruction sheet which came with the router telling me to type 192.168.0.1 into my internet browser, which i did, i then filled in the fields which i needed to but it wouldnt connect, i then connected up my old router, downloaded the latest drivers and firmware for this version of the DG834G and then connected up the Netgear router and installed the firmware. I then connected to 192.168.0.1 again and entered the required fields etc. It then told me it couldnt find something to with the DSL's so i had to enter in the codes for those, which i did. It still didn't connect.
Then i had to leave the house to meet someone in town so i connected the old router up and closed down the setup wizard for the Netgear router and shut down the computer.
I got home hours later and decided to give it another shot. So i setup up the Netgear router, and opened up the wizard and tried to connect to 192.168.0.1 but this time it just doesnt connect
i've tried disconnecting the wires and then reconnecting them but it still just doenst connect.
Can anyone help me connect to it? And also guide me through step by step how to setup this damn router please?
For all i know i could have been entering my username and password incorrectly but i cant get to it cause i cant connect to 192.168.0.1
Thanks,
-Dooli
