You need to get either a wireless usb adapter or a PCI adapter. Usb type is better because it does not require as much work as in a case of pci adapter.
Most new laptops sold have a built in wireless networking capability. Make sure the wireless connection is turned on, and fill in the network password if one is asked for.
Yes, it can. But you have to get a wireless adapter which can be either PCI, PCIe or USB.
Connect it to the computer's tower
In an ordinary wireless network there are hubs set up specifically for connecting the wireless devices to the larger (wired) network. In a cooperative network, a device that can't reach a hub might talk to another device that can, and the second device would pass along the network traffic. It's similar to one cell phone that can't reach a cell tower talking directly to another cell phone and letting that other cell phone connect it to the tower. (cell phones don't actually do this)
AnswerWireless networking allows you to connect several computers in your home without using hard wiring. This is especially useful in providing internet and email capability to each computer. You will need an internet service provider such as your cable or telephone company, a cable or DSL modem to receive and transmit to the internet, one wireless router and wireless cards for each computer. The wireless cards are not difficult to install, but it would be best to ask a knowledgeable friend or co-worker to help you. Visit your local Fry's Electronics, BestBuy, Staples, OfficeMax, CompUSA or similar retailer and ask for wireless network assistance. You should be able to create your own wireless network for about $100 depending upon how many computers you are linking.Wireless wide area networks are wireless networks that typically cover large outdoor areas. These networks can be used to connect branch offices of business or as a public internet access system. They are usually deployed on the 2.4 Ghz band. A typical system is as per the one deployed by Gaiacom Wireless Networks http://www.gaia.ie/ contains base station gateways, access points and wireless bridging relays. Other configurations are mesh systems where each access point acts as a relay also. When combined with renewable energy systems such as photo-voltaic solar panels or wind systems they can be stand alone systems.
A wireless router will usually be connected directly to a high speed modem between the modem and any other device. This allows the router to correctly pass internet requests from the local network (computers connected wirelessly or to a standard port) to the ISP (the high speed modem connected to the Internet port). Connecting a wireless router to a computer would be unusual but it could function if connected to the network port on the computer provided the router-computer connection was properly configured. In this case the computer would have to be configured to route.
No, Wi-Fi adapter resides inside a computer's housing, whether it is a laptop casing or a desktop tower. It has a port for a wire or an antenna that transmits data to and from the computer and from to other computers on the same network. But A Wi - Fi dongle is a network adapter that plugs into a computer's USB port. It transmits data wireless between the computer and other computers on the network. A software installation may be required the first time a dongle is used on a computer, but the computer should recognize the dongle every time it is subsequently plugged in. networkrepairs.ca
no. A computer system is just the tower. The computng part itself. Keyboards, mice, speakers and monitors are accessories.
On most Acer and other computer brands there is a wireless button on the keypad. To turn on the wireless function search for a button with the wireless icon a tower with parenthesis growing in size on either side of the tower.
A wireless only router sends out a radio signal to all the devices, B, G and N bands. The computer/devices have to have a wirless card/dongle to work though. It only has the one ethernet port for the modem to connect to it.A Wired only router is one that only has ethernet ports connecting it to the computers/devices. There is no radio transmitter in it.Most routers have both now, usually 4 ethernet ports and the wireless radio as one, so you can connect wireless or wired devices to the router at the same time.An example world be my older tower doesn't have a wireless card and I don't want to buy a USB wireless device so I can just use the ethernet cable to connect to the router while my Laptop connects wirelessly.
You, unfortunately, cannot attach a tower computer to your main one. However, you can network your computers together so that your back up computer can have access to the drives on your main computer so you can back up your information as you see fit. To do this, you can utilize a router with a built in switch or you can simply just a switch to network your computers together.
If you are just wanting to hook them up together you can simply use a crossover cable to connect them up directly to the Ethernet ports. But if you want to allow them both to access the internet you need to get a router. There are plenty of articles in TechSpot describing them thoroughly. Have a look around.
