If you have DHCP installed in automatic mode just connect to router and everything will work.
If you use manual configuration then make sure that all your PC(s) in the same sub-network. Address should like that: 192.168.(same number for all PCs).xxx (192.168.1.xxx, xxx can be from 1 up to 254, and this number should be different for all PCs).
Also make sure that you PCs are in the same workgroup (win+Pause->Computer Name->Change). If you have to change the workgroup name you will have to restart your PC(s) after that.
After that press Start->Run. In run print "cmd". In cmd ping 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.2 (ans so on). It will check connection with itself and with another PC.
If the printer is connected to another computer via a cable, then you need something for the wireless computer to connect to. It would either have to connect to a wireless router or you could have a wireless card in the other computer and configure the two to talk to each other. But using a router is a far better solution. Then you can setup the printer as shared from the first computer and configure the two comptuers to be in the same workgroup and share it that way.
Connect a wireless network adaptor to the computer and configure the adaptor to connect to the wireless network that has the files you want to access.
Why Would 100BaseT be easier to configure than wireless in a home? Why Would 100BaseT be easier to configure than wireless in a home?
Answer:Yes, but you first need a wireless router and your network configured.Next, install the drivers/software for your printer on your computer (check your printer manual for directions)Afterward, configure your printer to the wireless network. (this depends of the type of printer)
For a wireless router setup a computer with a wireless network adapter is needed. The wireless router is connected to a modem using a ethernet cable. The wireless router should also be connected to a computer. After this the computer should recognize the router and guide you through the rest.
Which combination is required to establish a connection to initially configure the Linksys WRT300N wireless access device? a computer configured in the same IP subnet as the WRT300N and a direct cable connection to it
You do not really have to configure a Linksys wireless internet router. It will do this automatically by picking up signals after you attach the Ethernet cable.
Yes but please don't do that. Use a wireless switch or router.
Does it have a wireless card? Is the driver installed? Is your wireless access point on? Is the right password put in? Have you tried the card in a different computer? Different network?
Just like you would if you were configuring a laptop or desktop computer with an internal wireless card. Don't use the "Install" disk as 98 percent of consumer wireless Routers, adapters, etc, don't need it to "set it up". It just to use the extras they have. Just get the IP number and password from the manual to access the Adapter. Any web browser should work. Configure the computer as using Ethernet and then configure the Adapter. Just hook the Ethernet cable between the Adapter and computer and just configure it like you would any other wireless computer. If you already have a wireless computer it would be easier to use that one and just copy the settings over to it. Or just look at the router settings. Follow the manual instructions as each one is different. Basially, make sure DHCP is on and you spell the the "Network Name"(SSID), "Security/Encryption" (WPA/WPA2, etc) and "Password" EXACTLY. It is case sensitive.
you configure by looking at your rear and you might find the light blinking on your NIC!
Most likely you do not. What you need to do is to configure it properly.
