Hello!
I currently live in an apartment that provides internet (DSL). I was connecting to the internet by plugging an ethernet cable from the wall into my computer. I decided I need to be wireless and got a router. I plugged an ethernet cable from the wall into the router and have been able to connect to the internet wirelessly. However, I seem to go in and out of connection A LOT! I don't know if its the internet its self or not. I don't recall ever really having connection issues when I was plugged in directly. Should I have my router set up a certain way because I'm going through my apartment complex that probably has a router already in place for the building? Does it need to be set up as an access point? If so how would I go about doing so. I am pretty good with computers but I REALLY just suck at networking stuff. lol I did notice that when I was plugged in directly to the wall my IP address would be 10.x.x.x instead of the usual 192.168.1.x like I am used to. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!
