spacebugOkay, friends who are smarter at 'puter networking things than me...
We all connect the old fashioned way, with cat5 to the wall. I think we have everything we need for this, it just hasn't been set up.
We have a wireless DSL Gateway. I found its IP address, and have tried to connect both directly to its IP address via a web browser and to the "web interface" address referenced in its FAQ. When I try the IP address, I'm prompted for a username and password. What the FAQ says the default is doesn't work. I made a pokey and pressed the reset, which supposedly brings it back it to its default settings, but it still didn't work. When I try to connect to the "web interface", I get a timed out connection.
We got the thing directly from our ISP - would that give this thing a different default UN/PW?
Thanks for any suggestions...
