hello

i have a belkin pre-N router and am using it with the following setup

ISP-------modem-----(usb)---PC-----Belkin ~ ~ ~ ~ (wireless hosts)

- wire
~ wireless signal...

i located the default gateway and can access the properties of thr outer.

the belkin router has got 5 fixed ports

1 for the WAN and 4 for the LAN.

i was wondering if it ws possible for me to do this

ISP-------modem-----(usb)---PC-----(LAN port1)Belkin
(wireless port)belkin--laptop

and then access the internet from my laptop

i can connect to the wireless network offered by the belkin pre-n router but dont know what to do after that. can you tell me what to do next?

or is it a must to do the following

ISP-------modem-----(usb)---PC-----(WAN port)Belkin

and then attach the laptop to the wireless LAN port of the belkin pre-n router?

i tried to connect two computers to the router using the ethernet ports

the first computer (connected to the ADSL router through the USB port) which i plugged into the wan port does not commmunicate with 192.168.1.2, it does not show a gateway address, when i tried ipconfig/all, the default gateway: (is left blank)
this is what i got when i did an ipconfig/all

C:\Documents and Settings\Rob>ipconfig/all
