ERROR - 'default gateway is not available'
Just installed new WN802T Access Point. Previous network connections provided by Centurylink DSL modem w/built in wireless worked fine. But with the WN802T, I get "default gateway is not available"...
Here's my configuration:
DSL in -> DSL Modem -> SonicWall TX180 -> NetGear 24 port switch -> several wired PC's, printers & NetGear WN802t Access Point -> 3 Laptops.
I have one Dell laptop that has no problems. But there are 2 HP Envy 15-3040nr laptops that will connect and work for a few minutes but then loose access even though they still show a connection.
I suspect that it's an issue with the HP laptops. All three of the laptops are running Windows 7.
When hardwired, they work fine.
