I have an elderly Compaq Presario CQ70-211EM notebook and an ancient Netgear VMDG280 router. I'm trying to set up a wireless connection. The notebook is wireless enabled and worked well in a previous life connecting to a BT hub.
I have all the necessary passwords, passcodes, PINs and so on but when I try to connect to the wireless part of the router, I get "WPS procedure times out".
Virgin Media are as helpful as a chocolate teapot, so any thoughts out there?
