Hey,
I'm having the worst trouble trying to get this stinkin' router to work (DI-524). I follow all the instructions and on the final step when they say "congratulations on your new network" i'm cursing like a sailor. After building a computer I thought I knew it all, but now my ego has been taken down a notch... I don't even know where to begin...
So I install the drivers on the computer that I want the adapter in, I place the adapter into it, and the "new hardware" thing doesn't pop up like it should. I think "no big deal" and move on the intructions, and when they tell me I should use the D-link AirPlus config utility, it won't open(I double click and nothing happens). The booklet says I have to do something special to get the damned thing to work on XP, and then procede with other instructions. They tell me to click on the network connection icon and then show a window that's "supposed" to come up that I have no idea how to get to.
On my computer(the one with the modem) I hook up my current cable modem to the Wireless router and then I go into the "http://192.168.0.1" control thing and follow the instructions then my internet ceases to work when it's connected to the Router.
This is such a mess and is driving me insane, and I know i'll be calling myself such a noob when I finnally figure it out, but i'm in desperate need of guidance!
