pardon a newbie question, but can anyone tell me if you can mix a new
install of wi fi with an existing wired network? Can I sorta piggyback the
wi fi instead of having to add more data cables..etc...

Guess nobody wants to help newbies...you should have been born knowing
everything.
Too bad...actually, I have the very same question. Upsetting that you
can't find a FAQ for doing exactly what you are interested in: Converting
a home DSL line to wireless inside the house so you can use two or three
additional computers. Simple I would think, but I've had no luck finding
anything written on the net and I'm not ready to trust the minimum wage
kids at Office Max. ____________________ Dave Hart

The FAQ section is being rebuilt soon and would contain more help.
this link in it may be of general help
www.wi-fitechnology.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=FAQ&file=index&myfaq=ye
s&id_cat=25&categories=Planning+for+your+Wireless+Network&parent_id=7 .
This link however is a help tutorial Setting Up A Wireless Network .
Any questions posted in the FAQ section will be removed, stored and
considered when re-designing the new section. |

Hi,
I have a Linksys cable DSl router sharring my internet connection between
my desktop and my sons pc in his room. I also have a laptop with a wireless
card. Can I add a Linksys wireless router to my pc that already has the
cable DSL router so I can have both cable lan to my sons pc and wireless to
my laptop?
