Troubleshooting

I've installed Wirox but there is no wi-fi network : Sure, wirox is a routing software, not an access point. There are several ways to create a wireless network : the cheapest and the fastest is to turn your wireless card in Ad-hoc mode. Then you'll have to set a static IP as it's described on the Get Started page and everything will be fine. You can also take advantage of a classical access point : see its documentation to configure the wireless network and then connect your pc with wirox running both to this network and to the Internet

Wifi devices can connect to my Beouifi network but they get a strange IP address : Are you sure that there is no DHCP server running on your Beouifi.org network ? Wirox already implements one and won't support conflicts.

Wirox is running but nothing is displayed in the Manager : it sounds like a firewall issue. Is Wirox allowed to access the Internet ?

Get rid of ZoneAlarm : Among free firewalls ZoneAlarm is probably the most nasty one. It modifies something in the MS windows TCP/IP stacks and breaks winpcap. (There are some details here). Just desinstall it (not only deactivate!), and use MS Windows firewall instead. (But please don't forget to use a firewall ..)
