WNCE2001 inappropriately providing DHCP connections
I have a new WNCE2001 Wireless Ethernet bridge and have successfully configured it to connect my ethernet-only printer to my home network. This morning, I was unable to get to the internet from my iP...
I am having the same issue with a bit of a twist. The WNCE2001 hijacks my wired connections. the computer I am using now... Talk about frustrating. Randomly, I could access my NETGEAR router but not DNS server or the internet. Last night, the WNCE2001 config page pooped up on WIRED PC! Seriously. I thought someone was playing a game with me and that they had connected me to the WNCE2001 ..nope...Unplugged the two WNCE2001 devices which were not connected to anything, they are for the kids XBOX's and they were using an ehternet cable to connect the two xboxs and thier WNCE2001s disconnected but powered on. Once I turned off the devices(WNCE2001)..Everything works fine....CRazy problem and this thread is over a year old....IS there really no fix?
