Problem connecting USB adapter to modem/router
Region : NewZealand
Model : TL-WR1043ND
Hardware Version : V1

Hi
First up apologies as model number is incorrect, and I might be posting in the wrong sections!
I have TP-Link TD-W8960N 300Mpbps Wireless modem router which initially was connected to my desktop via Ethernet. I bought a TP-Link TL-WN822N USB adapter
so I could move the desktop into the living room.
The USB adapter has plug and play for Win 8, which is on the desk top. I can see the strong signal from the modem/router and connect following the instructions. I get a connected message, but have no internet.
I assume this is something to do with the fact that machine was initially connected via Ethernet?
I can access the net using my laptop and smart phone via the Wifi.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Oh - the message I get is "doesn't have valid IP configuration. Do I need to go into 192.168.1.1 and do something?
Thank you.
