Sounds strange but I went on my xbox360 because I noticed I did not have a network connection. I see my network name has been changed and its has a WEP(i don't have it protected) and it says %26quot;Duplicate%26quot;? can't someone help me please I am way confused.How to erased a duplicate network?
Rename your Networks SSID and always give it WEP protection. Someone may be repeating your WiFi network to leech off your broadband connection.
Plug a cat5 ethernet cord into on of the four LAN switch ports on the router (and not the WAN port). Plug the other end into the PC.
On windows
Start--%26gt;Run
cmd
ipconfig /all
write down the IP address of the Default Gateway on your Local Area Network Adapter.
Open your web browser and type http://{IP address of Default Gateway}
ie http://192.168.0.1
The Web Administration Username and Password should be
Username: admin and the Password should be left blank by default.
Enable the DHCP server on the router. Save the settings.
Now enable the Wireless radio and give it a name (SSID) and use encryption (64-Bit WEP is sufficient). Give it a 5 character password and REMEMBER IT (make it easy to remember like the first 5 digits or your phone number or your street address). Save the settings and the router should reboot.
Now plug the WAN the cat5 cable into the modem and then other end into the router's WAN port. Cycle the power on the router.
Wait about 30 seconds.
Go to the laptop of WiFi desktop and enable the WiFi connection and scan for WiFi networks. Connect to your (the SSID you entered) then type in the password and you should be good.
You can always use a cat5 ethernet cable and plug it into one of the 4 switch ports on the router to get a more reliable connection.How to erased a duplicate network?
There is probably another router similar to yours installed nearby. You should ALWAYS set your own ssid to prevent such conflicts. Change the channel as well. I strongly advise you to use encryption for your own protection, anybody can steal your connection, also they can see every transaction on your network including user names, emails and even any clear text passwords, everything they want for identity theft. Also anyone using it to send porn emails or pictures will bring the authorities to your door, They will confiscate all your equipment.
