Basic working of Skyrove:

When connecting to a Skyrove hotspot, the end-user will get an IP address in the range of 192.168.182.xxx.

If no IP address is given, it indicates a problem.

Keep in mind that in order for the router to work, an internet connection MUST first be established.

NB: No proxy must be set in any browser on the PC. Macs have general proxy settings, rather than in the browser, so beware of these.

Common Problems

1. I've set up the Skyrove router, but when I connect to the Skyrove Internet wireless network, my PC doesn't receive any IP address. (A message says: "Limited or no internet connectivity")

This can be due to a number of causes. Check the following:

a) Your Skyrove router has an active internet connection. If the Skyrove router doesn't have an active Internet connection, it will not give any IP addresses to your PC
b) Your Skyrove router might be conflicting with your broadband modem/router. Ideally your Skyrove router should be on a separate IP address range altogether. The default Skyrove router IP address is 192.168.1.1. If your modem/router's IP address is similar, change it to something like 10.0.0.2.
c) You plugged the cable from your modem/router into one of the Skyrove router's LAN ports. You need to connect it to the WAN port.

You can check whether the Skyrove router has an internet connection by looking at the status screen on http://192.168.1.1. If it does have an active internet connection but you're still getting a "Limited or no internet connectivity" message, the cause is likely to be b) above.
