Comment: Have purchased: Belkin Wireless Notebook Network card (F5D6020) Belkin Wireless Desktop Network card (F5D6001) Belkin ADSL modem with built in 802.11g wireless router (F5D7630) I was hoping to share my broadband connection between desktop and laptop. The router and desktop (running XP) work fine but when I try to connect to the Internet with the laptop (running Me) I get 'page cannot be displayed' etc. Can't even connect to the routers web based interface. However, as soon as I connect the laptop and router via cable its fine. I have made sure that all three are on the same wireless channel, have same SSID and encryption settings. The router and laptop both seem to recognise each other, the laptop is in the DHCP Client List of the router and the laptop says it is connected to the router with a strong signal. I've managed to set the router settings from the desktop and these seem to be OK (according to Belkins FAQ's, user manual etc). Have also set browser settings to Belkins idea of what is right. I just can't see why it won't wirelessly! Tried getting through to Belkin tech support and have trawled the net but no luck... Any ideas? Thanks Sam
