This prevents me from looking up what the wireless network name would be by default out of the box. It might be that this has been altered from the default name anyway.
Connect the Acer laptop to the router wirelessly or with an Ethernet cable. Again, I cannot describe how to do this because you have not given the Acer laptop model or what version of Windows it is running.
Consult your Acer documentation. If you have problems understanding your documentation then by all means get back to us. My assumption from reading is that the antenna does not go directly to the PC but into the back of a device that looks like this From looking at the pdf it seems that this device uses the ip address mentioned in your error message, i.
What you are trying to do is use your PC as a gateway with exactly the same ip address as the gateway that you already have which is. This is shown on page 21 document numbering or page 29 pdf numbering. Your computer may lose connectivity with other computers on your network. Your access point also acts as a router, as it has a builtin dhcp server which can supply you with private ip address ranges. Is the dhcp server part of that AP turned on?
Connect your Desktop PC to the access point as well, a lot of ISP providers only give you one client connection 1 ip address , so if your desktop is connected to the inet your laptop won't be able to connect. The routing function of your AP will be able to connect more pc's to the inet. When you open your control panel and enter start "system", then have a look at your hardware, is everything OK no yellow exclamation marks, etc?
Can you see your wlan interface? Have you also inspected the case of your notebook? Some have a small slider or switch with which you can turn Wireless adpaters on or off, and this switch is usually difficult to find!
