Russian speaking IT/PC specialist
Hi,
we just moved here. My wife is Russian and has her netbook set-up with operating system, Microsoft, in Russian. unfortunately when she's not trying to use it in our new apartment with WIFI it does not connect for some reason. WIFI is set-up properly as it works with my MACBook as well as with our iPhone.
My russian is not good enough to handle that myself...
anybody know any Russian speaking PC/IT person who could help ?
Any leads appreciated
Cheers

I'm a little confused here!
Are you saying it works in your apartment, but not in other locations? Its easier to connect to a mac and iphone, than the internet.
You need to put the wep key number in from the router, along with your username when trying to connect to the secure internet connection pretty easy to do, shouldn't need Russian

See if you can follow this guide!
Your netbook may show you are connected, right click on the monitor in the bottom right corner and choose diagnose & repair 5th choice down the list.
Because you have moved apartment it may be required to configure the modem here http://192.168.1.254/mdc
Then follow the instructions here http://home.singtel.com/mio/mio_mobile_faqs.html
It is easier to delete the network connection that was setup at the old apartment and let the computer search for the wireless router, once you identify your router, try to connect!Lenochka wrote:will try that tonight and then see if we can fix it.
thanks for your help and
have a great weekend

The problem is the current Internet routing arrangements change from the previous address.
Your router is configured to the old telephone line.
Ring singtel and they will talk you through the setup on the phone, it is quite simple to fix.
Though i think the quickest way is to delete the network configuration and let the computer search for the router! With the right password and user name it will log itself on each time, like any other wireless location.
Its the old network settings causing the problem

I understand what you are saying....and maybe my post was not explicitely clear...
it worked in the previous location with a different router (we stayed in a temp accom with some free WIFI provider for their guests).
now we moved into our own placed and got SingTel mioTV Bundle/package. When she wants to connect now it says that the network is found, we enter the password...and then it says "connected"...
but for some reason it doesn't go anywhere ! Internet Explorer displays the error message which says you're working offline or something else is wrong......and that's what I don't understand !
sorry if I was not clear in the beginning - and thanks very very much for your time and help !

Your browser maybe set to working offline! Go to the tools drop down menu on the browser and the work offline tab should have a red cross not a tick. If it is ticked it will not connectLenochka wrote:I understand what you are saying....and maybe my post was not explicitely clear...

Your Mac book connects okay to the router on wireless? or is it wired to the routerLenochka wrote:done that - unfortunately the problem remained.
I thought about that but it did not solve the issue.
Find the command prompt and type : ping 192.168.1.254 (press enter)
copy and paste the response if any!
