DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 194.168.4.100
192.168.0.1

Whose servers are these? This indicates that you have two DNS
services running some where on your network(s.) 192.168.4.100 is a
"private" IP address that can never be seen directly from Internet.
You might have to change your subnet mask to 255.255.0.0 since the
192.168.0.xxx network is controling the access.

BTW: You were trying to access the AP @ 192.168.0.100 but could it be
@ 192.168.4.100?

The OP's primary DNS server is 194.168.4.100 a public IP address, not
192.168.4.100. The secondary DNS server is his router.

According to the manual for your WAP, in order to access the web configuration
page, the computer has to be on the same subnet as the WAP. Your router is
issuing IP addresses in the 192.168.0.XXX subnet. Your WAP is on a different
subnet, 192.168.1.XXX.

I'm no networking expert, but one thing I do know is that if I setup a computer
with an IP address on a different subnet, it will not be able to access my
router's configuration page. That may be why you cannot access the WAP from your
PC.

The following may be a long shot, but it shouldn't take much effort and may give
you access to your WAP's configuration page.

Connect your laptop with an ethernet cable to the hub.
Go to Control Panel and double click Network Connections.
Right click on the Local Area Connection icon and select Properties from the
menu.
In the box on the General page, click on Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to highlight
it.
Click on the Properties button.
This should launch the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties sheet.
On the General page, click on Use the following IP Address.
In the IP address box, enter 192.168.1.101.
Hit the Tab key and the Subnet mask box should automatically display
255.255.255.0.
Click OK.
Click Close.

Go to Start -> Run and enter http://192.168.1.100 in the Open box to see if you
can access the WAP. If so, you should now be able to configure wireless
security.

If this works, and you're able to use your laptop's wireless connection, you
can go back and reset your laptop's LAN connection to obtain an address
automatically.

If your still unable to access your WAP, you might want to post your question to
the following newsgroup.

microsoft.public.windowsxp.network_web

Include as much info as possible. Hopefully, the experts on that newsgroup will
be able to provide an answer to your question.

Good luck

Nepatsfan
