Re: Making a livebox wireless

Thanks Danny,

 

I have tried both options and checked the default IP address as suggested, they are the same but to no avail. I am considering the powerline suggestion by Jan but would like to ask:

Do I assume that the existing ethernet cable that currently plugs directly into the Livebox would have to go into the Netgear box and then a cable would go from the Netgear box into the Livebox?

Uhh?... when did the netgear box come into the equation? Confused! If you mean the things that Sid was referring to, you just need the plug in things and no other box. The ethernet cables go from the plug in thing to the PC and at the other end from the wall socket to the livebox. They use the electrical cables in your house to make a network. See here for more info 
or here in English

If you want, you could always try resetting the livebox and make sure the wifi is working before buying other things. see here for more info in French
