How do you know you're connecting to the wireless router? Are you receiving
a correct IP address? What OS are your using? Is WZC controlling your
laptop's wireless device or is another application controlling it? Are you
using encryption? Please be very detailed in your decription of your
devices as well as in what you done thus far. In the meantime, if you're
sure you've configured everything correctly, check your firewall settings.
A simple reboot of all devices won't hurt either.

What were you expecting to find at 192.168.1.0? That is not a valid IP number for any individual
computer. If you wanted the router configuration page, the 2wire router that I have worked with set
its address at 192.168.1.254.
