Next: Creating a WIFI network when DSL modem doesn't work well with a router
From: techman41973 on 2 Feb 2010 01:11 A friend of mine has DSL service. The modem that came with the service for some reason does'nt work when connected to a home router. So its currently connected via ethernet to a desktop PC. Is there a device that I can plug into a USB port on the PC that would tap into the internet connection (through the PC) and broadcast a WIFI signal so laptops can connect to the internet? Thanks

Did you do it that way, or just plug the cat cable into the router? -- Slackware 12.2, 2.6.27.7, Core i7 920, GeForce 8400 GS RLU #272755 |
