Hi All,
I'm looking to go wireless but need some advice regarding the hardware
required.
Currently I have one broadband connection shared via a netgear RP614 router
to four PC's.
What I am hoping to do is to have my PC running on wireless, but still allow
the remaining three to run wired.
I've read up a bit and this is the way I think it can be done (please
correct me if I'm wrong!);
Connect a wireless access point (netgear WG602) to my port on the router,
put a wireless PCI card in my machine (netgear WG311), or would I be better
off using a USB adapter?
What sort of range would I expect using this set-up, bearing in mind the WAP
will be downstairs and the PC will be upstairs (but not necessarily above
the WAP)
Many thanks
Dan
