Well, my main pc has crapy wireless card, so i thought id use my old pc and just get the internet through wire, instead of using the Wireless. It didnt work

So i tried to connect to the wireless network on my pc, it connected but i cant get on the internet, so i thought id try to get on the internet on my other pc, but that didnt work either

Every PC, laptop etc still works apart from them 2, can someone help me please?

If you have access to the router through wired or wireless connection, try the following:

Open a browser page type 192.168.2.1 into the address bar, If you have router access this should open the router's configuration settings panel. From there you need to check two things.

Firstly look at the security settings, if a secure key has been enabled, you should temporarily disable security leaving it set to open connection.

Failing that restart your router either by settings restart router option or pressing the reset button usually at rear of unit.

Remember to turn on security settings again when you're done.

So you're trying to get this old pc on the internet by wiring it to your wireless router. When you try to connect to the internet, it doesn't work. When you type in ipconfig /all in the cmd prompt, what IP address do you see?

Have you tried manually changing the Internet Protocol TCP/IP settings?

What about running the wireless network wizard that may have came with your router?

Hmm... i just did something and it started working

Thanks for your help
