Well I bought a Buffalo Router WCR-GN and have been trying to configure it with my hathway connection for the last 3 hours but have just not been able to do so! The router shops up in the network under "Network and Internet Settings" in the Control Panel, but if I try to open an webpage, i get the message saying "The Router cannot connect to the internet". On running the setup cd that came with the router it goes through all the steps
except the last one where it says "failed to acquire an ip address" and then shows "unidentified network"
I am not sure if this has something to do with hathway requiring a password now to log in or whether I need to change some settings on the router administrator page which opens when i try to log into a website. Do i need to change the IP address, DNS adresses or the MAC ID?
Anyone using hathway with this router? Any help appreciated! Totally frustrated trying to set this up :S
