Hi Guys I've actually had this all working before but after much messing to be honest and wasn't sure what got what working :P
OK firstly I don't have a manual for my XDAIIs but I'm pretty technically savvy so this isn't too much of a problem (until now) :) My dilemma is that when setting up my connection firstly I'm unsure if I need to select "Work" or "The Internet" on first initialising my Wifi LAN (I have however tried both).
When I choose Internet and use my network key I get access to the internet but no MSN Messenger access. After this non-connection with MSN I can't access the internet again even though I turn off the wifi and back on to re-initialise it ?????
In the past I'm sure I used "Work" to connect and I'm not sure if I ticked "this networks connects to internet" from within the proxy settings and as I mentioned Internet and Messenger both connected flawlessly.
Can someone please give me some pointers as to what I should be connecting to as in "Internet" or "Work" and possibly what I need enabled/disabled.
Is "Work" like a PC LAN which you would use for broadband for example, as if this is so I guess I'd use this ??? And the "Internet" simply uses your network settings / dialup settings ? (I'm just unsure). Today I had Orange dialog pop up when using "Internet" after a period of inconnectivity which I've never had before when I had both Internet and MSN working (Bloody hard resets).
I probably sound like Im waffling here but just trying to give as much information as possible to help ascertain where I'm going wrong. The setup is a wireless router directly connected to a broadband connection. It's WEP and I have network Key.
Any pointers greatly appreciated, especially as to the "Internet" or "Work" choice as I'm unsure which is which.
Thx in advance.
