Wireless Networking

Apr 12, 2005 9:25AM PDT

Hi, I have Comcast home networking With a Linksys wireless router. I am running Windows Xp service pack 2. The problem is that my other computers cannot connect wireless. But if I hook the up wired they will. When this happened we called comcast to come out. They did. He was unable to get it working too. But, Im wondering if it has something to do when it was installed. When Comcast was installing it, they were getting problems. Noe of the things went right. Finally, he gave up on that computer and went to the second computer. That computer hooked up right away. The model of the router is Wireless - G Cable Gateway. When a wireless card is hooked up, it starts sending packets but not recieving any.Also, I cannot ping any computer with the card. I would like to get that fixed. IF you can get back to me asap. Thanks
