Hi,
I have a knackered old compaq presario 1200 laptop with windows 98SE installed. I
recently bought a micradigital 802.11g wirless cardbus adapter.
I installed the wirless adapter software and plug it in. Everything looks fine -
I have a lovely strong connection to my router.
However when I open up internet explorer 5 I can't seem to get onto the internet.
I have tried fiddling with the connection settings in IE5 but can't seem to get it
to understand that there's a wireless adapter for it to connect through.
My network config is:
- client for microsoft networks
- wireless cardbus adapter
- tcp/ip
- file and printer sharing
Anyone have any advice for me?
Thanks in advance ;)
