Need help setting up a wireless network
Ok so I've been trying to get this wireless network setup for like the past 2 months and I've failed everytime because I frankly just suck when it comes to computers. I'm using a Linksys WRT54G router and my other pc has a WMP54G wireless adapter. When I hook up everything this computer here has a fine connection to the internet, but when trying to connect the other pc I either get an error telling me that it can't find an access point or it found an access point but it can't find the internet(wtf?) Anyone tech savy able to help me out here, or point me to a site designed to help idiots with networking?

Hmm well that seems to have helped, got the computers hooked up and both can access the web just fine now, but I'm wondering how long it'll stay like this, first day I somehow managed to do this but both computers would lose net access after an hour or so. Anyways, thanks VG =)

Well the signal strength is "excellent" but it's kind of weird when I don't have net access, I can do things like use irc and aim, but if it's an online game or if I'm just trying to surf the web I can't do it. It acts as if I'm not connected to the net at all.

Should my Ip address be the same on both computers? Because it is...

Oh I see, yeah I was using whatismyip to check and was confused why both had the same. Everything seems to be working just fine now though, only issue I'm having is just this port forwarding crap, kind of annoying.
I was speaking idiomatically. |

Oh one annoying little problem with irc and this router, I seem to disconnect every hour or so, sometimes every 30 minutes when I'm idle. Keep getting an error telling me that software caused connection abort. Is there anything I have to check/uncheck or a certain port I have to forward to solve this?
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
