Hi guys,

  Can someone please help me with simple instructions to set up a wireless router to access Woosh?

I have a USRobotics Wireless Turbo Access Point and Router unit, cabled to my Woosh P1D, and ethernet to my PC.

I can access the set up on the router, and have set it to PPPoE, entered my Woosh user name and password, and the two DNS server numbers as appropriate for Woosh, but nothing happens.

Any and all assistance talking me through this would be greatly appreciated.

R.

WHOA .... it's all working now, well at least the router/Woosh access/ethernet bit.

I cleared the router settings and started all over again using the Wizard, and NO DNS settings etc, just name and password.

Then again maybe the 3 brandys and the dead chicken I waved over it helped too <BG>.

I've yet to check all the security settings and recommendations, and "turn on" the wireless network to a another computer.

Cheers,

R.
