I have recently tried setting up a Wireless LAN network
between a laptop running Windows ME and a desktop running
Windows XP. The network cards I am using are both US
Robotics 802.11g. I have managed to achieve file and
folder sharing on both computers so am happy that the
connection has worked but have come across the following
2 issues:
1) My computer running Windows XP will randomly shut down
with the blue screen error message 'IRQL not less than or
equal'. Although this sounds like a device conflict,
having looked in system information the IRQ setting of 19
for the network card does not appear to be used by
anything else. Although when I disable the network card
in device manager the computer runs fine with no random
shutdown.
2) The PC running Windows XP has an ADSL modem connected
to it via USB. I have set this up for internet connection
sharing in order that the computer running Windows ME can
use this internet connection. When I go into Internet
Explorer on the laptop the internet connection appears to
connect ok over the network but when trying to browse to
various websites the webpage never shows up. Despite the
status bar showing 'Web site found waiting for reply' the
blue bar moves slowly then eventually times out.
Any assistance on the above 2 issues would be highly
appreciated.
