User Manual for the NETGEAR WGE111 Wireless Game Adapter
I have a gaming
console, computer,
and the wireless
game adapter
connected through a
switch. The
computer connects
to the Internet but
the gaming console
can't.
I can connect to an
access point, but I
cannot connect to
other computers on
the network or the
Internet.
I am using Ad-Hoc
mode and my two
WGE111 Wireless
Game Adapters
cannot connect.

If using a switch or
hub with an
Ethernet-enabled
gaming console, the
gaming console
must be powered on
before the other
Ethernet-enabled
devices.
This could be a
physical layer
problem or a
network
configuration
problem.
This could be due
to conflicting IP
addresses.
With power on, disconnect everything from the
switch or hub. Re-connect the WGE111
Wireless Game Adapter, then connect the game
console(s).
Finally, connect the other device(s).
Check to make sure that the access point is
physically connected to the Ethernet network.
Make sure that the IP addresses and the
Windows networking parameters are all
configured correctly.
Restart the cable or DSL modem, router, access
point, and notebook PC.
Each WGE111 Wireless Game Adapter is
factory-shipped with the IP address
192.168.0.202. You should not use the same IP
address for more than one device on your
network.
Change the IP address of one of the adapters.
See "Using the NETGEAR Smart Wizard
Configuration Assistant" on page 3-9
information on setting the IP address.
