Couple of things to check before you send this unit back. The 800+ is
very particular about what it will comunicate with, as far as I know
(and I have one of these units working) they will only connect with
Dlink equipment. You will have to make sure that your wireless
equipment is compatable, check Dlink's website for a list. As far as
connecting to the unit you have to make sure that the PC you are
connecting with is in the same IP range as the 800+ ie: 192.168.0.XX
and Subnet 255.255.255.0 Hope this helps
