Awesome luck. Pyraxis asked for a new router when we got cable installed. Too late, we discovered that she did not get a wireless card for her behemoth of a computer. We still had the old router, which because we didn't know the cable company in Florida was fucking with our service, was a top of the line (then) TP-LINK with bridging capability. I got directions on the internet and of course, it did not work.
The good thing is that I was able to figure out what happened.
The new router kept kicking the old one off even though the old one was hard wired. Solution: configured it on the behemoth.
Still no access, but I was able to reboot it and surprise, connect with it from my notebook.
The biggest good was that I found my mistakes - the incorrect MAC address that I had put in - off by one digit. And I realized that since I had to start over I had not turned off the DHCP on the old router. Did that and it worked. Now we don't have to buy anything to get her internet access and she doesn't have to use my wonky HP while I am at my conference on the Levono.
