Home Edition.SP2. The set up disk says there is
a "Known Compatibility Problem with this system and to
Contact Microsoft Broadband Networking......

If you are using Windows XP, you dont need the BNU software. You can
configure EVERYTHING through the Base Station Management Tool at
http://192.168.2.1

If you insist on using the BNU software, you can download the update from
here

Sounds good to me Jason - however, I receive "The page
cannot be displayed" when I try that url. Is it the
correct one ??? Maybe there's another way to get
there ???
Thanks for replying

Jason: I'm entering http://192.168.2.1 is that not
the full url ???

Sorry, I'm a little green here...... I'm still
getting "The page cannot be displayed" when I try that
url.
Where am I going wrong ?

Ken

Oh, you are trying to access the BSMT. I thought you were talking about the
MSBBN updates.

Make sure that all your proxies are off

In Internet Explorer
Options, Tools
Connections Tab
Lan Settings
Uncheck everything in there.

Use a different computer, go to microsoft web site
http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/br...tworking/05_by
ProductType.aspx?type=USBAdapter Then find the updated
software, download the file and then transfer it to your
problem compute.

I notice many issues with establishing internet connection
with wireless adapters, after people install service pack
2. Yet they can browse their networks. I have been working
on this problem for a few days, without resolove.
In my instance, after selecting "run", typing "cmd", then
typing "ipconfig", I notice the wrong IP address. Somehow
windows keeps coming up with an IP address starting with
169......etc., instead 192.168.2.xxx needed to connect
with the internet.
