Hey all,

I'm trying to add a 4th brand new computer to my already working wireless network. I booted the computer, installed all drivers, everything was working appropriately.

When I connect to the wireless network it says I ahve 100% signal strength and like 90% link quality, but when I try and access the internet it says that no connection is available.

I am unable to ping the router or any other computer on the network. I ahve also tried to both manually configure the IP address and let the DHCP assign one.

The router is a Linksys BEFSWS4 and the USB adapter is a D-Link DWL-120+

Thanks.

do you have mac filtering or WEP authentication enabled on your network?

Perhaps less subtly -- try posting this in the Networking forum. Networking-specific questions should go there, and they're much more likely to be able to help you.

Does the new computer come with any software firewall installed? Try disabling it. You may need to setup rules to get it working.

Did you setup an IP address (if static) or did it get an ip address (if using dhcp)?
