Good Evening All,
Today, I purchased a wireless router for my parents house. I hooked up everything properly (I know this because I am currently using wireless internet through my laptop and iPod touch), but now I CANNOT get online through the desktop that my parents have always used.
In the past, they utilized a USB connection from the back of the modem to the back of their computer for internet. Now, I have an ethernet cable hooked from the back of the new router to the back of the computer.
They are using Windows XP, and Internet Explorer 7. I have a feeling that I will need to go into the network and internet settings window to change settings (IP addresses?) but I have no idea what to change or what to change it to.
I appreciate your time in reading this thread, and hope to hear from you all soon! Thanks so much!
