Wifi problems

[Guest andyr27]

I seem to have been going grey this year with wireless network issues in the home.....

1st it was Netgear then an M2000.

I could get a connection but was unable to browse the internet.

After an eternity waiting on Orange 150 (good job its note an 0870 number) and not taking no for an answer ("not an orange problem speak to Microsoft"), I got through to a star in 2nd line support.

My problem was fixed by changing the subnet mask at his suggestion to 255.0.0.0.

Bingo!
