    Home Wireless Setup

    have a few PC's with an ADSL connection currently. Need some good docs on best equipment needed for a shared internet conection, also file sharing. So what will i need. A Wireless Router that plugs into my ADSL modem, and each PC equipped with a Wireless NIC (most likely some the Netgear range) and a WAP that plugs into the Router I'm guessing??? thanks in advance

    you can get WAP/router combo. I recommend LINKSYS.

    Then either a wireless nic card or you can hard wire up to 4 PC's

    dsl plugs into wireless router, pc's into router, or wireless. usually works right out of the box depending on your service.

    my dlink di-614+ works great

    just switched my router to this plugged in all my computers
    installed the wireless card in my laptop
    shutdown
    plugged the card in
    startup
    connected wirelessly

    easy as pie


    had one h**l of a time trying to get linksys to work (search the wireless forums with my name to see all the troubles) but thats just me
