    Is there a switch on it for crossover or anything like that? Some of them have, can remember what works, crossover or straightthru.

    Have you gone into its config page & set it to connect to your network. Also set the dm600 to dchp & reboot. Then go back into the dm600 network settings see what the new ip is after its rebooted.

    they are a nightmare.
    i've got the belkin one and it took me ages to work the damn thing out.

    does it work with your lappy?
    i'e' can it give your lappy internet when you have its [the lappy] wireless turned off?
    have you got that far?

    if so turn it off and on again, does it still work?
    that will simulate you moving it to the dream?

    then you can work out if its the dream or the WGA at fault?

    my dbox is connected via mine now
    i turned off encryption and got it going that way
    then saved the config file

    three months it took me!

    dx
    its nice here....

    dx's reply just reminded me of somethin from when i setup one of these.

    Which model do you have nao?

    The encrption on your router, what is it? wep 64, 128bit etc..?

    What is the gaming adapter capable of? Check the specs & set router to encryption that the adapter is capable of using.
