Hi All,
Win8, all up to date.
Acer Laptop.
Android cell phone.
Actiontec GT-748WN router.
I am using my phone with an unlimited data package to Tether with my laptop. It works just fine, until I plug the home RJ-45 router network into the laptop and try to access a website, it hangs and times out. The router is just there as a data switch essentially as there is no DSL available and the router-wifi is set off.
It seems like the request for the website page is getting passed to both the wifi and the router and never resolves.
How can I fix this?
Is there a router setting I should be looking at? I have searched through the router firmware and can find nothing obvious to turn off or change.
A win8 setting?
Or what?
Thanks
