Default SpeedTouch 716v5 internet help

Hello! I am using speedtouch 716v5 for my wireless network. But there is one tricky thing. I can connect to the router with cable with my macintosh, but not wirlessly. My PC cant do either. But my PC and Mac do both connect and show connected to the right network, but i cannot use internet. Whats wrong? I really need wireless...

Thanks.

Ps. If i go in on the routers settings page (via cable) it shows that both computers have been connected wirelessly

1. Make sure DHCP is giving an ip address to the machines over the wireless

After your connected open a command window(xp machine) type
ipconfig /renew all

This will force it to get a new address from the router.

Then just type:
ipconfig

and post the results here if you want. Ideally you should get a 192.168.xx.xx address.

When you first setup the DSL, which computer did you use and how was it connected to it(wireless or cable)?


I also found this little snippet in your DSL setup docs:

Registering wireless clients
Proceed as follows to add a wireless client to the ACL:

1 Go to the SpeedTouch™ Web pages.
2 In the menu, select Home Network > Devices.
3 In the Pick a task list, click Search for wireless devices.

The SpeedTouch™ searches for new wireless stations that use the encryption key of the SpeedTouch™ Access Point.

The SpeedTouch™ takes you to the Home Network. The new station will be shown next to the name of the SpeedTouch™ WLAN.

4 Click the name of the new station.
5 Click Configure.
6 Select Allowed on WLAN, and then click Apply.
The device is added to the ACL and will always be allowed to connect to the SpeedTouch™.

Hi again!

I am now connected to wireless and can access the routers settings page! But still no internet.... Whats wrong? I can access the internet through ethernet cable. I have contacted SpeedTouch support, but reply may take a while (you know internet support can be a bit slow). Please help.

Thanks
