Unhappy Wireless says its connected, but...
Hey

A few weeks ago i moved into a flat next to a friend of mine, and instead of getting the internet myself i'm using his and paying him half of the cost..
It was working fine, but the other night it just stopped working but was still connected, i asked him to reset the router and he did and still it woudln't work, then we tried leaving it on over night but still i have the same problem...

I have my wireless network settings to automatic etc, so i don't know what is wrong, i'm not to good on computers so heres a printscreen of what i think it is...

I've never seen Internet Gateway before till the other day and now it won't work, so i don't think its a coinsidence, the weird thing is... It doesn't work on my Ipod touch either, but the wireless works fine on my friends comp, any suggestions on whats wrong?

Thanks in advance

Hi Neiix, and welcome to TSG.

I believe that we are not able to assist you with this problem due to site rules.
