WG602v4 No Internet With Time Warner Cable Modem

[harvonkeuka]

Like many other posts, was working, stopped working. Not knowing how someone else set it up way back when, I reset the WG602 to factory defaults.

Cable modem is fine. I plug in laptop via ethernet cable and I see the outside world. However, when I connect the WG602 and attempt to connect wirelessly, I am not able to get an IP. ipconfig /all reports:

Ethernet adapter Wireless Network Connection:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Dell Wireless 1395 WLAN Mini-Card

I have gone through the usual machinations of powering down and restarting. Any ideas? Many thanks.

what is the cable modem model

[harvonkeuka]

Ambit U10C018

Ambit U10C018 is basic cable modem with out no NAT so installing WG602 cable modem will not going work

You need a router behind it

Uh, . . . per original post it worked fine until recently.

[jmizoguchi]

Static ip private ip PC using gateway ip of ISP and DNS also IP of ISP

Probably will not work
You need gateway cable modem and not just modem or wireless router

My friend's PC had an alternate configuration for her wireless adapter that looked like that. Maybe an IP changed. But I also connected at some point with my laptop and it is set to get IP and DNS automatically. What a mess. When I am there next time I am going to see if a Linksys I have works, but I agree the best solution is a wireless modem supplied by Time Warner. Thanks for your help.

Just install wireless router if you have spare

I am thinking about this some more, and I believe you are correct. Can you give me a bit more detail? I have little networking experience.

Sounds like:

Is that it? Thanks again.

You can try by setup static ip on wg602 with private ip , setup witelss etc

Connect to cable mode


You might able to get ip from ISP to sigle laptop
