Anyone help? I have the above wireless router and Cardbus/PCMCIA wireless adapter but I can only get a connection between the two if I turn _all_ security off! With WPA on, the Windows XP wireless tool shows no networks, the Netgear one shows one Network (mine!) with signal level 78% but it won't connect either. I've checked the settings (correct SSID, WPA pass phrases etc) and I'm running the...

Let me explain my problem. I need to monitor my WAN data transfer, but not the LAN. I want to keep track of the amount of data via the WAN, so I can monitor my monthly usage of the internet. The problem is, when I transfer files down the network or use Remote Deskyop to connect to my serverPC, I find that the LAN activity is added to the rest of the bandwidth use recorded... Is there any...

I was reinstalling a customer's PC which used AOL 9 and a BT Voyager 105 ADSL modem. She asked whether she could instead setup a local network (either wired or wireless) that would allow this PC and a couple of laptops to access the internet and to share files/printers locally. Had it been any other ISP, the answer is "yes - easy peasy". But what about go-it-alone AOL?

Hi all, here's a nutty one I need some help on. I am trailing two broadband connections on different telephone lines. Each has its own modem which presents an Ethernet interface and each modem path then goes through a router/firewall. What I want to do is to connect both up on the same network, but use one for browsing from IE and the other for e-mail using Outhouse Express. The clients are...

I've just switched from a cable modem to ADSL so bagged myself a nice litte ADSL wireless router from work (a Netgear DG834G v2 - the small, white version). It is, however, crap. Even a few feet and pure line of sight away, the signal is only 'Good' and disappear around a corner and you've had it. Thinking the router was at fault, I then liberated a version 1 of the same router model. With...

Hi everybody. I have been assembling a server, in part from leftover components, to be used as a backup utility of my own PC and for the ones of my children. I installed Win2003 on it; our own PCs run WinXP. I'm not unhappy of the progress I made so far, I'm not doing too bad as a hobbyist... :-) Here are two things I need some advise for; having seen the high level of discussions here,...

Hi Windows XP home - SP2. I have a BT Voyager PCI card. I have fitted it as described in the instructions (a few times now). The green icon in the bottom left says "Wireless Connection Unavailable" and when I open the Broadcom Control Suite 2 utility on my control panel - it shows the BT Voyager PCI Adapter icon with a red

Is there such a thing as FREE hard drive cloning software available. If anyone can post useful links on here I would bo delighted. Mike@lincoln

Our home network is set-up as follows: PC o/s Win Me connected to the wireless ADSL router via a LAN card and ethernet connection. Printer is attached to the PC via USB port. Laptop Win XP Home SP-2 is connected to PC & ADSL via wireless adaptor.

Hi I hope someone can point me in the right direction. I have 4 machines (all XPPro SP2 with NTFS) on a P2P network via a 3COM adsl router which handles DHCP. Each machine has Norton Firewall installed. The network is running fine but I'm struggling with sharing. I currently have:-

I was under the impression that this router was equipped with a full firewall, but it seems to be only an incoming firewall like the windows xp firewall. Is this correct? Unlike software firewalls I get no warning that a program attempts to connect to the net. -- Beck My new Blog... very unfinished and barely started. http://latenightbreakfast.blogspot.com

To follow up a thread I started a month or so back: Download it from he http://www.gijsen.ndo.co.uk/3CRWE454G72v1_03_07C.dlf From what little I've used it, it certainly seems MUCH faster than the previous firmware :) HTH,

Can I use a wireless access point to place it upstairs and connect it to an (outside) external ariel. I,m thinking about lighting blowing up the repeater instead of my router/PC! Bye for now. Clive.

Just added a fourth user to CCProxy and when I try to connect using the new details its telling me, 'Too many users' Can anyone help me? Surely you can have more than 4 connections set up? Seems a bit strange? Steve

This may be a daft question but us old 'uns can be a bit slow on the uptake. I have just linked 2 PCs with a home network starter kit ( Network cards.....switch.....cables ) It seems to work fine after getting the PCs to accept the cards. (Main= XP pro. Second_ win 98) My problems seem to be with getting the main PC to respond to commands from the second one. Can I actually show the main...

I am just about to go broadband on a wireless network. I've ordered the necessary card for my Mac and the modem router. The laptop which will be connected to the network occasionally already has a card. Is there any other hardware needed or do I have everything ready to go? Jules There are two respites from the miseries of life - music and cats.

I've got an "Addon" ADSL 802.11g wireless router which I'm running as a LAN 'cos Broadband hasn't hit here yet! Host and client communicate fine and share data but I can't get the client to access the dialup modem in the host. It's set to "Share" but when I dialup from client I get an error message on the host saying the port is already open or modem not configured correctly. Is this because...

Set up WEP on Safecom modem/router and entered key on notebook. Windows reported (on notebook) that the connection may not be able to use the internet or had limited access to the network. Any ideas? -- Regards, Coxy.
