Hi I've just bought a Dell CPx J 750GT and want to pop a WiFi card into it. Does anyone have any experience of any of the suppliers, I have looked at Netgear, D-Link, Belkin and Intel and can't see much difference. It will be used with my Netgear wireless ADSL router but also hopefully in WiFi hotspots here and in New York. I'll be running Win2K. Cheers

Does anyone know which is the best wireless router with bult in modem for around £100? or maybe a bundle with a USB adapator aswell - thanks.... --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

I have Compaq Tablet - one of the nice looking (but too slow) laptop thingys with built-in wireless connectivitet 811b or whatever. I also have my PC witht a standard LAN card and bought a LAN adapter - a thing that plugs into my LAN card via a short bit of RJ45 cable. Problem is, I bought it in Japan and only have a Japanese manual with it. Originally, I had it working OK, with Internet...

Hi, I hope someone can help, what I need is to be able to connect my laptop wirelessly to my ADSL internet connection which is downstairs in the house. Most of the time it will be in the same room. I have seen loads of products but I am baffled to what I need. Do I need just an adaptor for each PC or do I also need an access point? Can anyone recommend one that is easy to set up and maybe a...

When my computer crashes, more than often, only the Keyboard and the mouse are frozen. The traffic through the network is kept correct. I'd like to safely turn the crashed PC off through the network, taking the commands from the server. What piece of software shall I install ? TIA

I have a notebook computer here that has internet access via NTL cable modem. No problems there I have just bought a brand new Dell tower system that has two NIC's installed and have been given an old Netgear DS104 dual speed hub. What I would like to do is keep the notebook as a gateway and have the Dell running as client. I know that with the Dell having two Nic's, ICS won't be a problem but...

Thanks for the help. As promised yesterday here is the report. Well, psshutdown isn't functioning on win98 machines, too bad ! Remote shut is detected and deleted from the disk as soon as it is launched !-( Needed to download twice ! I tried to deactivate the protection before installing it and reactivating it after. It detects it again and deletes it from the disk.

Have you disabled DHCP in the belkin, and allowed it to use the DHCP in the router? "PDoc" wrote in message ... Hi, After moving home, I've just about got ADSL running again. However, the place I'm living in now is a lot bigger, so I've invested in a Belkin Wireless Access Point. I've connected this to my Etec ADSL

I'm looking for a tablet pc that will allow me to run a remote desktop of my main PC via a wireless link. I'd plan to use it for surfing while in another room from the main pc - maybe play MP3 file also. So in theory, i don't need a very high spec processor running on the tablet PC. Does anyone know of a cheap solution ? (UK). tia

Please help I have a small peer-peer network set up between me & my neighbours (3 pcs in total). These are all connected via a hub. My pc is running XP home and the other 2 machines are running XP pro. The problem I have is that i cant access shared folders on one of the xp pro machines cos it keeps asking me for a username & password. However, the same xp pro pc is able to view & share my files...

Hi, I plan to network 5 PC's in order for all to access our ADSL connection. PC's will be in individual rooms throughout a rather large house with the intention to put RJ-45 wall sockets in each room, these sockets will connect into a patch panel via Cat5e solid core cable, patch cable connects the patch panel ports into a Switch, ADSL Modem/Router also connect to Switch. Here's what I think I...

I was given an old Nighthawk Electronics Ltd. PCK4V KVM recently, and would very much like to use it. BUT there was no manual, there is no manual on the net, and the company seems to have gone bust last year so there's no chance of getting information from them. I opened the box up, and discovered that it had actually been designed and built by "Digital Developments Ltd.", from Dorchester. There...

You will need a WAP (Wireless Acccess Point) and a wireless card for the laptop. Connect the WAP to a spare port of your network router - install wireless card (PCMCIA/Cardbus). Configure WAP (SSID, channel no, WEP, MAC address of laptop) and you are there.... Mount WAP in a nice high place.... For Internet access you will only need 802.11b (11Mb) kit which is pretty cheap now (See Belkin,...

I have a wired home network currently with 3 pcs in my upstairs office (including the "main" pc) and have recently added a further pc, which is only being used for multimedia and is connected to my tv in downstairs lounge. They are all linked to the network using a Lynksis 4 port router (which also connects to my broadband modem) and I have complete access to all the pcs from each other, so...

Hi guys We have an NTL monthly Dial-up connection account, which we use to connect a couple of other computers via Ethernet cards to the internet. It was all working fine till yesterday afternoon, except for a few issues with sending emails, and then the child computers just dropped the connection, they can still see the parent computer (which connects to the internet fine) and can share files...

Thanks for your responses to my last post. I could do with a little more advice now though. I have networked my laptop and desktop via a crossover cable and everything is working fine with the exception of the Internet Connection Sharing. This works until I switch on the firewall on the host machine - I have configured it on both machines (ZoneAlarm) so that each network card is in the...
