I use a netgear wireless card to access the internet. When I manually put in my TCP/IP settings It says it is connected at 100% but it will not receive packets. If I allow it find it's own settings it has limited or no connectivity, any ideas?1 person needs an answerI do too

I have more questions than answers at this time. Is the router configured to act as a DHCP server, so that you don't have to manually set your TCP/IP settings?Is encryption enabled on the router and if so, are you entering the correct security key?Is MAC filtering enabled at the router?The above are 3 of the common reasons for your problem. So they're definitely a place to start.If you don't set the TCP value manually, what do you end up with for an IP address?Are there any other wireless devices which are connecting successfully to the router?

HiThe connected word does not necessarily means that it obtain a valid IP.Disable the Router's Wireless security, and make sure that there is No security application the blocks the local traffic.Once you are able to connect to an Open connection, enable again the security.In general.My Wireless does not work - http://www.ezlan.net/wireless.htmlWireless Basic Configuration - http://www.ezlan.net/Wireless_Config.htmlWireless Security - http://www.ezlan.net/Wireless_Security.html Jack-MVP Windows Networking.
