The WRT54G just means that is the model number of router that you have. It's obviously created by Linksys, but different model numbers separate routers.
The router supports encryption and authentication
The router supports 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n devices By Garga
Routers do not need any CD in order to connect to it. If you mean that you do not have a driver for the wireless adapter you get it from the manufacture website (Netgear, Linksys and so on).
It does not matter if you are connected through wireless or cable, your router can provide firewall protection for all of its ports on the LAN side. If your question is: Is my wireless router's firewall protecting me, although I do use it for wireless connectivity, the answer is yes. Your routers firewall protects you whether you use the wireless option or not.
Wireless Enabled is a system normally on laptops which allows you to access the Internet via an existing Internet connection. For example; If you buy a laptop which is wireless enabled, and you wish to get on to the Internet then you can do if you have a computer which has the Internet or a wireless router. If you have neither of these items (a computer or a wireless router) then I advise you buy a wireless router and then you can connect to the Internet wireless. From Whiz-Tech 915.
can refer to anything wireless. anything without wires. :) wireless network adapter in a desktop PC or laptop/netbook ps3 xbox psp etc wireless router wireless printer these "people" you speak of should really specify what they are talking about.
A wireless router is a device that performs the functions of a router but also includes the functions of a wireless access point and a network switch.In essence, it allows you to connect to the router without an Ethernet cable and have access to the internet.
It means your Netgear wireless router or Netgear wireless card (your computer) are too far from one another for the wireless connection to work.
What do you mean? On a Game Boy, On a Nintendo DS, on a computer, laptop, T.V. I don't really no this stuff. I am only a Nintendo DS expert. Any questions on that?? -Scabs If you are connecting your desktop computer to a wireless router, then you will probably need a wireless adapter. Most laptops today have wireless cards built into them so that you don't need to buy an adapter and you can pick up a signal from any wireless router.
I assume you mean wireless access point? A wireless access point allows you to connect wirelessly to a wired network. A router routes packets across different networks/subnets. Both are completely different devices but can be bundled together.
If you mean a wireless network connection - you should buy a WiFi adapter (USB or PCI or PCI-e), install it in your computer and then set-up a new network connection. If you mean wireless as no-cable-power - there is a problem. Desktop computer uses much more power than laptop and no battery can power it for a time longer than few minutes.
If you mean to literally move your PC, pick it up and carry it there, or get a wireless router.
