So I bought a Wlan dongle or whatever they call it to connect to my house's Wifi, the brand is EDUP, I don't know if you know it or not I just bought it from a local shop.
Anyway, I installed the drivers and plug it to my widows Xp running computer, and started setting up the connection:
the dongle is working and it did Identify the Wifi, and with software coming with the dongle I can tell that the signal level is about 50%, however a small pop up window on the bottom right of the screen says the the connection is limited an I cant use the internet, so I press this window and it give me the option to press "repair" which i did, an during the repair process it reaches a point where it will be trying to Renew IP, which it fails to do and I still cant use the internet.
The Wifi is provided through a TP-Link router, and it is functional for sure, all the mobile phones and laptops are working fine with it.
Can anyone help me?
Additional info: I have never done this before and I know nothing in networking, like the type of security code I should choose in the software ( open or WEP or WPA.....), and I didn't find a place where I can type the Wifi's connection password.
