Hi,

Yes that is the correct socket.

Yes that command can be ran through the run dialog box.  Once ran it
should produce the file.txt in the c:\ drive.  Do this when you have the
router plugged in and the modem disconnected.  However, after thinking
about the problem, I think it may be related to the dial up networking
trying to dial a connection still even though there is another
connection it can use.  Please read my other message on this.

Andrew.

Hi Andrew.

I've plugged it into a slot beside 2 usb sockets at the back of my
computer. 
It's not plugged into the old dial-up socket, which is much smaller.
This 
plug is about the size of a usb plug with a lock clip at one side.
There is 
no other socket on the computer that this plug will fit in to.


At the moment I'm using my old Freeserve usb modem so as to keep in
contact 
with the list.  If I remove it and don't get the router to work, then
I'll 
really need to take the computer into the shop.  Tell you what, I'll 
uninstall speed-touch anyway Andrew.  Having it may be preventing the
router 
from operating.  I've also placed speed-touch in my start up menu, so 
perhaps this is causing the problem also.

You  said "When you plug the router into your computer, can you get a 
command window up and type in the command ipconfig /all >c:\file.txt,
then 
send me the contents of the file.txt in the root drive?
"

Is the command window the same is the Run window?  If so, then I'll give

this a go.  But I may not be able to if I cannot get on-line.

Tell you what Andrew, I'll do nothing more than remove speed-touch from
my 
start menu and re-boot, with the router correctly fitted.  If I get no
luck 
with that, then I'll completely uninstall speed-touch.

Best wishes.

Andy

Hi Andy,

Just something else I have thought of after reading the message.  Where 
exactly in the back of the machine did you put the cable into?  Was it a

plug on the back of the motherboard, or another add-on card, or was it
your 
dialup modem you tried to plug the cable into?

It should go into an ethernet socket either located on the motherboard
or in 
an add-on card, but it is not the dialup modem.

Andrew.

Hi Andrew.

It's a Bellcan 812 - cannot get to the correct spelling  The shop fitted
the
internal wireless modem into Pauline's computer upstairs, and the Router
is
sitting downstairs beside my computer, which is connected via quite a
large
telephone plug into the back of my computer.

My wife's computer is working fine and she is able to go on line, but I
cannot.

The paperwork - if Pauline is reading it correctly, is telling her to
install the CD.  She may of course be getting mixed up with her
computers
card installation, but surely, I'd need an icon to click on to go
on-line,
or would I still use the Freeserve Speed-Toouch icon?

I'm able to go on-line at the moment, because I've fitted my old
Freeserve
modem  again.

Any of this help Andrew?

Best wishes.

Andy
