Wireless router problems


I recently bought a USR 5461 wireless router because it has a printer server too. Initially I had it working wirelessly for a new HP ze2000z Omnibooks and an old Omnibook 3000 (W-XP and W98) and wired to a desktop (FC4) except that I couldn't get prinf from the FC4 box. While trying to fix the print problem the wireless stopped working. In addition I can't ping the router from the W95 even when wired. The other two will connect to the internet when wired and will get to the router's setup page. Trying to get to the router from the new HP (Broadcom 8.11b/g built in) gives me "waiting for network address" which goes on ad infinitum. Keying in the WEP/WPA key doesn't help.

It looks to me like you have to set it back to its factory defaults. The user manual should help you there, or the vendor's web page for the product should have information to help.

I used the reset button, restored only enough of my settings to get on the Internet via wire, and still can't connect wirelessly.
