[RESOLVED] How do I setup this network???
My main computer is a Gateway Pent.III/550 running Win98SE with 512 of RAM.Fat32 File system.
I have a Netgear DG834GT ADSL Modem Router connected by Ethernet cable
to a Netgear Ethernet PCI card in the computer.
Networked is a Netgear WGT634U Wireless Router which is connected to a Topfield Television PVR Set top Box by USB cable.This setup is used to update the Television Program. All works well but is a waste of resources as I only update twice a week, but it is a convienience for the Board of Control.(otherwise known as 'She who must be obeyed').
However it now appears that I will be confined to bed for some time in the future and would not be able to access my computer setup at all.
To overcome this I propose purchasing a Laptop computer with wireless built in so that I can overcome my isolation. This will be running Win XP.File system will most likely be NTFS but no sure.
My question is will An XP laptop work with the main Win98SE computer via the wireless router?
What is the easiest way to achieve what I need to do?
