I actually thought it was the router at first so I sent it back and they sent me a new one same thing happens. My wireless button is on on my computer. I have also tryed troubleshooting which includes reseting the router. this has to be something easy, I should be able to plug in install and go i'm LOST.1 person needs an answerI do too

Do you know the SSID (network name) and Security key of the router? 1. If so, right-click the wireless network adapter’s icon in the Notification Area (bottom right of screen), open it and follow the prompts to connect. The software varies from manufacturer to manufacturer but the SSID and security key must be typed in. Subsequent connections will be automatic. 2. If you don’t know them, connect the computer to the router using the Ethernet cable so that you can access the router’s set up details. This is done in a home network by typing 192.168.x.y into a browser address bar window. The values of x and y depend upon the make of router. If you don’t know the values, open a Run window (Windows key+R), type cmd /k ipconfig (note the two spaces) and press Enter. Make a note of the Default Gateway address and enter it into the browser window. When asked for the username and password, type the default values (if they are not known, look in the router’s user manual). Go through the sections until you find one named wireless or similar wording and find an SSID name and a Security key. Use these to connect wirelessly as per 1 above.

what actually happening while connecting to the router, any way check if dhcp is enabled in router and , your computer network card is not having any static/ manuall ip address check security setting in router is athere any preshared pass key or open ? regards and best of luckSohail Khan
