How can i set up my desktop xp to my home internet connection?

admin — Wed, 14 Apr 2010 14:40:11 +0000

Right, im 16 years old and more technically able then my mum, so i have been told to ‘mend’ the familly desktop PC. The network is fine as i am on my laptop at the minuite, but as the desktop is not wirelessly enabled I have two wireless adapter things, a netgear WG111T and a Belkin one, both have no driver software. I really have no clue how to do this, so any help would be really helpful.

Thanks

How do you connect a desktop computer to a wireless router?

admin — Mon, 12 Apr 2010 16:10:00 +0000

I currently have one desktop computer connected to the internet via a broadband router and a wireless router is connected to that. If I wanted to connect another desktop to the internet using the wireless how would I go about doing that?

I have looked into the USB wireless thingy, is that what I want? Will that allow the desktop to be connect to the internet?

A wireless usb toggle will allow that computer to connect to the wireless signal being delivered by your wireless router, as long as the router has an active connection. Most are simple and easy to use. Or you can just plug another ehternet cable into it.

If you are using the wireless toggle, you may need to enter a wireless password (known as the WEP key) if your wireless router has one. Some come with a password, some do not.

I would personally go with the USB wireless toggle, they’re pretty cheap these days.
