Hello Atomic,
Your results did show something... You're connecting to your Router fine. However, the Pathping failed because you're running Windows 98 (I apologise, I didn't read your post thoroughly enough).
However, the pathping was only relevant if the ping to your router failed.
When the router is secured, what happens when you goto Start, Run, type CMD, press 'OK', and then type:
- ipconfig /release - wait until connection is released;
- ipconfig /renew - please copy and paste the details that you recieve when you type this.
Could you please also goto Start, Run, type CMD, press 'OK' and then type: IPCONFIG /ALL - please post the results here by right-clicking on the Command Prompt window, selecting 'Select All', pressing Ctrl+C, and then posting on this forum.
For troubleshooting purposes, please ensure that you have all software firewalls disabled (temporarily).
When you have security enabled, try connecting to your Router's web console by typing
192.168.2.1 into your Internet Explorer's address bar.
What steps did you take to setup up your Router's password security? Please list all steps, including anything you did on any of the computers.
Thanks,
Dan.
