T60 wifi causes problems with my Netgear Skype phone

#1 Post by Vripper » Tue Oct 17, 2006 11:06 pm

I just bought a new Linksys router, as my Netgear one was 5 years old (pretty amazing 8) ).

Whenever I log onto the wireless network, it prevents my Netgear WiFi Skype phone from logging on, and logs it off the network if it is already on.

I don't want to have to turn off the WiFi for my T60 everytime I want to use the Skype phone.

Any suggestions?

Just a guess on my part but it sounds like an IP conflict to me. My guess is both the Skype phone and the IBM are trying to use the same IP address. I would suggest adding two to the IP address of the Skype phone.
