| 404325 | 2005-11-14 21:04:00 | I have recently gone broadband and I had a Dynalink router in the deal,with the intensions of connecting 3 computers, I now realize that I would like to go wireless withe the existing router. So I need aerial sender from the main PC to transmit a signal to the other 2 computers 1. Laptop is it an ethernet card plug in job? 2. PC with a USB receiver, hope this makes sense! And what would the cost be say if I was search on PriceSpy etc. | micky (7329) | ||

| 404327 | 2005-11-14 21:17:00 | What model is your Dynalink router? I would guess you need an access point with a four port switch, depending on weather or not your router has a four port switch. Your main computer will be pluged into the router/switch or accesspoint/switch via an ethernet cable. The other two computers will need a Wireless LAN Adapter either USB or PCI. |

| 404328 | 2005-11-14 21:36:00 | Its a Dynalink RTA 1335 its a wired one, I did enquire at DSE the guy told me could get these plug in sender units to transmit to the other PC's | micky (7329) | ||
| 404329 | 2005-11-14 21:51:00 | Dont take networking advice from DSE. It would apear your modem/router has a four port switch, so the accesspoint you get will not need the four port switch. Is this what you are trying to do (silvertech.co.nz) |

| 404331 | 2005-11-14 22:18:00 | For the access point I would go for a Linksys WAP54G (www1.linksys.com). Do you have the other devices that will allow computer 2 and 3 to go wireless, or will you need to buy something for these as well? |
