[QUOTE="Vyc87, post: 1189191, member: 184147"] I'm referring to these forums because this is my last line of possible defense. I live in another country, so help is limited and this world is pretty much run by PCs, and lonely little me with my Macbook Pro... most of my local friends just give me a :-\ and shrug their shoulders. I have searched to the ends of the Internet and one, I can't find anything that directly answers my questions, and two, any references to my problems are answered for PC users. So here goes nothin' My D-Link 2600 (3 in 1) Wireless Router, does not connect to the Internet. As the title of this thread suggests, I am computer illiterate, and so by process of elimination I have set up my internet connection to be IPoA... Bridging is what the default set up chooses, but that doesn't work, and neither does PPPoE--- nothing works. So far, IPoA has allowed me to connect to 192.168.1.1 through my wireless connection, while the others require me to use the Ethernet cord the entire time. No, I cannot get Internet through the Ethernet cord, I can only get to the router page. All the lights on my modem are lit--- but when my modem was working, the Internet light would blink, now it's a solid green. That'd be fine if I could actually get Internet pages to load, but they time out. I had working internet for three months, and then something unfortunate happened and it's a long story, but basically I had to reset the router. I know the problem is not the ISP because my Internet has run just fine for this long. I'm pretty sure it's the router. It's been about two weeks without home Internet. Le sigh! Is there anyone who can help? Please? [/QUOTE]
