I'm sorry, but I don't have enough information to diagnose the
problem.
What is its complete model number of your ADSL device? Examples of
current D-Link model numbers are DFL-300, DI-524, and DSL-302G.
What tells you that the 192.168.0.1 address belongs to an Intel
wireless card?
Click Start | Run, type "cmd" in the box, and click OK. Then type
this line at the command prompt:
ping 192.168.0.1
Does the command time out? Does it receive replies?
If your ADSL device is a router with a local area network IP address
of 192.168.0.1, assigning a static TCP/IP configuration to your
computer's network connection might solve the problem. Make all of
these settings:
IP Address: 192.168.0.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.0.1
DNS Server: 192.168.0.1
