Hi all,
I'm new to Wireless and need a couple of questions answered please.
I want to setup a wireless network at home but not sure what equipment
I need.
I have two PC's and a laptop. One PC is in my house with the laptop
and the other PC is about 200-250 feet away. I don't have a broadband
feed coming into the house yet but would be getting one very soon. I
would like for all PC's to be able to see each other and share info.
Do I need to buy antenna because the PC's are so far away from each
other?
To I need to buy an access point (don't really know what an access
point is!!!)
Or could I simply put and wireless card into each PC and get them to
communicate that way?
Any help is appreciated
p.s. My house is an old converted cottage with quiet thick walls,
will this matter?
Regards
