NTL & Wireless networks

jem · 06-01-2006, 07:40 PM

I have decided to set up a home wireless network and am getting nowhere fast. I have puchased a linksys wireless g router which allows me to configure it to a point but wll not recognise the presence of my NTL modem which means no internet through the router.

The router has a light to show when it is connected to the internet but it stays off when connected to the modem though it lights when I connect the wan port to the PC (I know this isn't correct but I was getting desperate)

Any clues would be a great help

New to forums, but i have a good knowledge of networking and i use a linksys setup with a seperate modem myself so i'll try and help.

Firstly what model is your modem and router and what o.s are you using.
