Posted: Sat Aug 23, 2008 12:12 am Post subject: Wireless and Windows98se

I am trying to connect a windows98se pc situated in an iron garage approx
6ft from the house. I am trying to connect using a wireless netgear wg311v3
pci adapter in the pc. My main router modem is also a Netgear DG834G and is
about a further 20 ft away (in the house).

I initially found I could connect wirelessly but signal was weak. I
therefore invested in a netcomm homeplug np290W combo. This works
brilliantly with my main computer in the house as I have located the unit
near me. I cannot put this unit in the garage as there is only one power
point out there and already it has two power boards connected - although not
all points are turned on all the time!

I have also extended the aerial capability on this old pc by conecting a
yagi antenna to the netgear card.

So, after setting up all the equipment I went out to the shed in high hopes.
Alas, it sees the networks (now two - one is for the main router/modem and
the other is the netcomm NP290W, but the jolly thing didn't connect. Any
suggestions would be appreciated.

Make sure you have setup the *same* key and encryption [WEP, WPA, etc.], and
check firewalls {if any, and should be} throughout the network. Put all
computers in the same workgroup with common share names and passwords, and
within the same IP range..
The metal/iron building is a major blockage to wireless. If at all
possible, put the antenna in/near a window which is closest to the base unit
or mount the yagi on the exterior..

What does the connection strength show?

IF you have checked the above: Have you run any testing like ping or
otherwise?

I should have asked, did you build the yagi or are you attempting to use
one from a HAM or CB setup {i.e.., are you sure its correct for the
frequency range?}?

Thank you for helping me. I bought the Yagi from local computing store. I'm
not sure how to test frequency etc, but will look into it. The think is, that
the netgeat wizard is recognizing the network(s) so the wireless should be
working OK do you think? When I connected initially in the garage, I was
getting signal strength between one and two only. However, internet
connected. Now, if I try to go through my new 'booster' which is a netcomm
homeplug, I can see five or six signal points in the netgear wizard, but will
not connect.

I haven't tried to ping - not sure how to do this. I haven't set the two
computers up as a network and therefore I have never looked at workgroup
names etc. My XP machine is using microsoft firewall, but I haven't set
anything up on the 98 machine. The XP has AVG free installed and the 98 has
AVAST free for virus protection. Would this be an issue?

Both machines are using the same WPA password encryption method but I am
wondering if I should try connecting to internet without any security to see
if this could be problem. It only seems to be since trying to attach the
little turbo plug that I am having problems.

I have had to R click little taskbar icon and 'repair' several times on XP
to get on internet, but 98 doesn't have this function. There may be something
there somewhere that I'm not aware of.

I do realize iron and water are a problem. Only one window in shed, and yagi
is as near to it as I can get it. Don't think cord will reach to try placing
it outside. Because I am getting 5 signal points, I think the problem
probably lies in software?? Should I try a static IP address on that machine?
Would that affect the XP trying to get on. (Both machines are unlikely to be
connected at same time)

All this seems a bit muddled - but that is how I am feeling!!

Thanks, LL

Along with Jeff's suggestions and questions, a note:
Just because you can *see* the network {or rather the 5 or 6 "points"you
now see} does not mean you can connect. Make sure everything is setup to
work together with the same encryption and key and other that I previously
mentioned. Changing the adapters/devices has changed the settings from your
original setup.

By mentioning five or six, are you indicating that there are that many
nodes in your network or that there are that many available networks?

IF these are networks: You must pick your network {which should be shown by
the identifier}, and block the rest.

Might also want to look at the IP configurations.

The XP firewall may still be setup for the old devices/adapters/network,
remove the old and start with a fresh network. That generally saves time [in
samll home networks] when networking issues crop up.

The plug/adapter installation seems to be the issue. You could disable XP
firewall and test locally, but I would not suggest connecting to the
Internet without protection beyond the hardware.

Again, it would be advisable to start from scratch. The XP networking issue
does turn-up occasionally with several potential fixes depending up test
resutls. Often the best fix is to try again. Is the XP machine fully
updated?

Sure, I prefer static through-out the network.

Setup the network as all static. OR *all* would need to be dynamic.

The PC98 connects fine to the Netgear Router and internet. However, signal
strength only one or two. Hence why I am trying to boost reception in shed
using the Netcomm Homeplug NP290W combo. I'll take your suggestion on board
and move the whole kit into home to see what I can do. Just that doing this
is a pain!

I just can't work out why the pc is OK with Netgear but not with Netcomm
booster plug.

Thanks for your suggestion - may not get to it today

Posted: Mon Aug 25, 2008 4:00 am Post subject: Re: Wireless and Windows98se

I do not have a network set up, just the two computers to log into internet
when they so wish. I got onto internet in shed this morning, and had first
disconnected the added turbo homeplugs. The signal strength was only 1 or two
in the netgear wizard. So internet dropped out before doing much. However,
nice clear day today so thought it would work.

Tried the wireless antenna closer to window but didn't improve. B y the way,
I am connected fine inside with other XP computer to the wireless turbo plug.
My signal strength showing in the netgear wizard is full.

What I was trying to say previously, that out in the shed when I had the
turbo plug connected inside, the netgear signal points were up to 5. Perhaps
the weather conditions are a factor and I should wait for the next clear day
to try again. Ran out of time today. If I can't connect on a clear day, I'll
haul the computer inside and try.

I'll let you know what happens within the next day or two.

One other thing, you know how you can R click on the little icon and
'repair' in XP. Is there anything similar you can do in Windows98 to repair
whatever it is that XP succeeds in doing?

Oh, so you were referring to the signal strength, got it.

9X has no repair per se, that's were complete network removal and
re-installation comes into play as I previously mentioned.

XP's repair just "cleans up" some of the network settings. It does not
repair.major issues.

Again, you *MUST setup the network*, particularly as you now have two
access point units/networks to connect to.

netcomm NP290W
LINK

Netgear DG834G
LINK

Make sure you re-check which you are configured to connect with in your
wireless PCI Netgear wg311v3 setup and that ALL required settings have been
followed. Take particular note of what must be done when there are more than
one access point.

Continuing to attempt to ignore potential setup issues will NOT bring
satisfaction. Please re-read the help suggestions.

BTW: You have a network even though the two computers are not networked. You
are networking with the access points [2 wireless routers] AND the
modem/router [Netgear DG834G] and Internet.... sometimes a difficult concept
to understand.

You also must have the Netcomm NP290W properly connected to the Netgear
DG834G [which is apparently your Internet/DSL connection] and properly
configured. Make absolutely sure you have EVERYTHING setup properly.

Re-check my Networking page for more information.
