Hello all, I got a PROLINK PWH2004 Wireless-N Router here. Problem is, the wifi is messed up. I am using normal broadband LAN cable for WAN, but when I try to connect to the wifi with my laptop, the connection will say it's connected, and has internet access, but cannot surf web (Google etc). (Note: When I do this with another router, the wifi works).

I already tried updating firmware to latest and resetting by pressing the reset button for 30 seconds but so far no good.

Anyone else encounter this problem? If anyone has any advice how to deal with this, it will be greatly appreciated. thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

I'm having the same problem with my PWH2004 too. Work just fine if connected through wire, but not on WIFI.

Already disabled all the firewall. Check the IP address, yes it give me an IP address. Connected but cannot browse any website. Reset to default still not working.

Not even that. I'm not able to connect to the modem setup page when connected through WI-FI. I don't have this problem on wired connection.

hi, I got to bump this. Anyone resolved the issue of this same model? I can ping Google but I can't open the website in my IE or Opera browser. Same thing with my Android phone. Already updated the firmware but same... I'm using 3G. Any one please?
