No - a router can connect to a computer, another router, a switch, a hub, a bridge or a modem. If you are connecting to the internet via DSL or cable company you will need a modem/router to connect to them. You then attach your computer (or computers) to that router.
Routers are useful because they make decisions about which way a packet of data goes - this network or this network? If you have one network that doesn't go anywhere (connect to the Internet or another network) a router is of no use to you and a switch generally does wonderfully and is cheaper than a router.
No, you don't, but you should have a wireless network card installed in your computer in order to receive/transmit signals from/to wireless router. Of course, if your wireless router has ethernet ports, you can attach computer with a cable, but in this case router will be working as traditional ethernet router, not wireless.
A computer needs to be connected in a router insist of giving it an automatic IP address
The first connection is into a Cable Modem ... from there the signal can go to a Router and then on to different computers.
Can I hook up two wireless routers on the same cable line?
you have to download hypercam
A person will need an outlet in order to plug a computer in order to have a computer working in a lab. They will also need the cords to hook the monitor to the tower.
If you do have a wireless router on, you don't need any other computer to be on, say if you have a laptop downstairs, and a computer with the router upstairs, the computer can be off, but the router has to stay on, and you can access the internet using the laptop from downstairs, if you have a good enough signal. Hope this helps!
either ethernet router or wifi router
PLug an ethernet cord into your router port and the other end into your computer
restart your modem then hook it up
Yes, but you may need a computer to set up the router first. After the setup is complete, you can use the XBox360 without the computer.
You'll need a router, switch or hub to hook up more than one computer to a network.
Everything you needed to hook up the same. If you only want to pay the bill for one internet connection then you're going to need to buy a router and hook up your computer through there. Other than the router you're basically gonna need everything that he has.
for laptop, it will automatically search for the signal and connect. for computer you will need to connect the wire the computer and to the router
Ethernet cable
You need to have two things: a wireless router and a wireless adapter compatible with the router.
Well, if you have Dial up, you can't connect to Xbox live. If you upgrade to High speed however, then all you need to do is to hook you 360 up to the Computer via Ethernet cable, or a wireless adapter, and a router for your computer.
You wouldn't do that.Instead you'd buy a switch.You hook it up to the router and it'll add another four ports.They generally cost around 15$ and it should be that easy to hook it up.
