Q: What can I do if I have forgotten the password for the Advanced Wireless 11g
Router?
You have to reset the Wireless Security Router back to the factory default setting by
pushing the Reset button for longer than 3 seconds. Refer to the user’s manual to
re-configure the settings.
Q: I cannot access my ISP’s home page, why?
Some ISPs, such as @Home, require that their host name be specifically configured into
your computer before you can surf their local web pages. If you are unable to access your
ISP’s home page, enter your ISP’s Domain Name into the OnePage Setup (3-3) to enable
all computers in your LAN access to it. If you only want to allow computers to access
these home pages, open the TCP/IP Properties window (2-4) on these computers, click
the
“DNS Configuration”
tab and enter your ISP’s Domain Name in the
“Domain
Name Search Suffix”
location.
