Issue with Clearwire Router !!!

ram040479 · 11-12-2008, 05:27 AM

All

I am using a Clearwire router for my Internet usage and its a plug and play device. I am connected to the Clearwire using a network cable. But the name of the connection just says 'Network'. What should I do to find out the name of my Connection. I had used another router in a different apartment and it said ''Connected to Netgear''. Can anybody help ???

Regards
Ram

What is the significance of the name of the network? Why do you care?

Okay !!! Let me tell you the issue. The Clearwire router I use has a Lan Cable and is connected to the Laptop I use, thus giving me access to Internet. But I feel I am not connected to any network due to two issues I am facing:
1) The Nokia E51 I use is not able to pick up the wireless network I am using called ''Network''. Solution required for this too...

2) During a voice chat over Google Talk, Yahoo Messenger, Skype, Gizmo etc, there is a crackling sound to the receiver and the call gets disconnected every 5 minutes. But the Internet signal does not.

So I feel the issue is with the network connection and not with my laptop or any other hardware. I have tried uninstalling the messengers and sound drivers and reinstalling the latest versions. But it has not helped and I am desperate for a solution as I am in Copenhagen and I use voice chat on a daily basis to chat with my family.

HELP PLEASE !!!

What kind of ISP is this connected to? What's the exact make/model of the router and any modem?
