User 192.168.1.100
Broadband modem/router IP: 192.158.1.254
Wireless router IP: 192.168.1.1
My laptop (typing this from; 192.168.1.101) is connected via wireless and has complete functionality.
The Windows 7 PC (192.168.1.69) is connecting fine to the home network but won't access the internet. I just corrected a DNS error I had made (I had set it as the ISP's DNS, not the internal DNS, which turned out to be the modem's 192.168.1.254) and this has allowed the network to be recognised as the home network, and fixed a little crisis triangle on Windows 7's network map that used to sit between my PC and "unidentified network" (now "Wireless" = correct SSID)
The Win7 PC can:
ping itself
ping this laptop
ping the wireless router
ping the modem/router
It CANNOT:
Load a web page
ping the ISP DNS (found in modem settings, this laptop pings it successfully)
ping the hardwired PC (192.168.1.100; neither can this laptop so I assume a firewall issue on the other PC is to blame here)
Help me???? lol I've been slowly learning about this stuff, but my patience is wearing thin.
It's worth noting I don't think DHCP is enabled anywhere in the network, I have set the IPs etc manually.
PLEEEEEEEAAAAASE! some of the guys here already know how crazy this is making me
Help.
