My desktop IP needs to change for it is able to connect to http://192.168.11.1 but it shows the page inactive.
I previously was just able to hook up my router and then my internet would detect my homemade wireless but now it doesn't show it.
I have asked around and they say that it is because my IP now that won't change. (68.60.175.40)
Help please  |
I think we are just as confused as you are now. What is the IP address of your desktop when you open up command prompt and type the command ipconfig /all?
The desktop and laptop address should appear in the 192.168.11.0 network range. If you have anything different, most likely your laptop is connected to another wireless network or you may have disable the Internet sharing capability of your router and the desktop has allocated the global IP address for itself.
