  install? i think u just need to search for ur mio modem, default name is 2wire123 or 2wire885...u get the idea

   

  but if u search there is many 2wire, u may have clicked on the wrong one? one way is to go to http://gateway.2wire.com , and see ur network name, u can change it as well

   

  and also see if ur wireless is enabled

  my network stuffs are okay, just that for some reasons, probably a minor factor causing the laptop unable to communicate with the modem.

   

  anyidea where can i read up the steps/instructions on installation of Mio BroadBand Modem?

  the CD which they have given didn't give sufficient information with regards to installation procedure.

  Start > Run and type in cmd

  Type in ipconfig /all and press Enter.

  Enter the Default Gateway IP address to set it up.

  are you able to browse for the wireless network ? do you know what is the SSID of your mio modem ? did you know the password or key set in the wireless encryption ?

  you need to know the above information in order to connect to your wireless mio modem ... it should be recorded somewhere when the first time when singtel technician come over to your place to install the mio modem ...

  else the easier way out is to use a LAN cable to connect to the mio modem ...

  good luck ...

  Well, yes to all of ur above questions.

  when the technician did the installation, i was into tekong for the 2 weeks confinement.

  when i reinstall the modem, it was then given to me again and i copied it down.

  but somehow, the smartfix didn't fix my problem.

  haiz..

  First, go to ur default gateway either by mayi's method of go cmd then type ipconfig/all, or http://gateway.2wire.net at ur address bar

   

  Click on the left "connection status", then after it brings u to the page, on the top click home network

   

  then make sure u have ur wireless enabled first....
