How do you connect my wireless usb adapter to another wireless router?

Assuming this other computer is not located near your router (in which case you would just run a cable) the first thing you need is to make sure this computer has a working wireless card that is compatible with your router.

There are four flavors of wireless - A, B, G, and N. A is rarely used these days and not compatible with the rest. N cards and routers are usually backward compatible with B and G, but check. G is the most widely available.

Once you have a computer with a compatible card that you know is working, just connect it like you did your first computer that's on the network. In some cases, you may have to power down all of your devices and then re-boot "from the wall out" - first the modem, then the router, finally the computer(s). It's that simple. Most wireless router are configured by default to accept a number of simultaneous connections.

If for some reason the above fails, check your computer and make sure the wireless card is activated (Device Manager) and receiving - you should see some kind of indicator on your computer or the card depending on your equipment.

Still no connection? Check the settings on your router. Did you enable security (WEP, WPA, etc) or turn off broadcasting? You'll need to make those settings on you new computer. Specifics of this can be involved and depend on which method you use.

Can you use a modem to connect your home computer without web access to your office computer in order to use the internet connection there?

You can use a smartphone for a wireless hot spot, Places like best buy also sell portable hot spots that can be payed for monthly. You can also bridge the connection between 2 computers with an eithernet cord.

Why do some pages become unresponsive in chrome browser?

Many users of the Chrome web browser have reported that some pages become unresponsive while surfing the Internet. This appears to be some sort of glitch and may be rectified by uninstalling and then re-installing the latest version of Chrome.

Difference between induction motor and synchrous motors?

Induction generators consist of stator windings and rotor windings both of which can be excited or one can be excited at a time so that they can run as singly excited as well as doubly excited machines .and in induction machines rotor consists of ARMATURE winding which is moving and the static FIELD windings is in stator.

Whereas synchronous gen. or alternators consists of static stator which consists of ARMATURE winding and moving rotor which consists of FIELD windings. so alternators are only singly excited systems in which the field winding is energised by a DC supply or with a rectifier and AC source and the or prime mover is moved with the help of steam as in thermal powerplant or with the help of water in hydropower plant so it is used in generating units where AC power is generated.

How can you hook up your laptop to a wireless router via cable if you also have a desktop with a cable modem.?

I should be able to help with this - but unfortunately I'm not quite following the question!! Could you rephrase and draw me a little verbal picture...the wording is confusing me a little. Thanks.

Is 6.5 MBPS fast?

6 Mbps, or 6 Megabits per second, or 768 Kilobytes per second.

That means every 1 second there are 768 Kilobytes of data transfered.

If You are talking about internet speed, for year 2010 is pretty good speed.

You can download a movie in few hours, song in few seconds...

As of 7/31/2010, average Cable companies provide 4 to 12 mbit connections. However, in reality, you rarely get more than 1/2 of this.

DSL has a slightly higher rate of utilization (60-70%), and are typically sold from 256 kbit to 10mbit, varying wildly. Ultimately, the two are very, very similar in average, but performance differences from location to location based on the company, technology, condition of cable or DSL lines, etc.

Dialup is typically called 56k but this is a different measurement, called 'kilobauds'. A 56k connection at a high rate (48k) can average 9 KB/s or 72kbit.

Most cellular internet lines average 256 kbit.

Most satellite averages 1mbit or less. (Higher is theoretically possible, but not under realistic, sustained usage.)

Verizon FiOS and other FiOS lines average 10 to 40mbit.

First-level fiber optic lines, such as OC1, averages 51mbit. NOT to be confused with T1, which is NOT fiber optic, and averages 1.5mbit. T3 averages 45mbit.

Overall, 6mbit is approximately an 'average' internet connection speed.

it should be noted there is also an 'upload' speed, which is typically MUCH lower than your download.

For example, it's usually a 1:8 ratio for cable. In other words, an 8mbit cable line usually have 1mbit of upload. This is how fast you SEND files, rather than RECEIVE them.

DSL is usually a 1:4 ratio, and a large reason for DSL's continued and growing popularity. It is preferable for businesses or users who send more than they receive.

T1, T3, and OC3 have a 1:1 ratio, uploading and downloading equally.

Dialup is usually a 1:2 ratio. IE, if they receive at 8 KB/s, they send at 4 KB/s. But this is technically lower as the act of sending also uses some of the downstream, and since they are already slow, a large outgoing transfer causes a much bigger bottleneck.

If the upstream is too low to support the downstream, it can also limit the downstream.

Typically, you need 1 mbit of upstream for every 5.5 mbit of downstream. So having 1mbit of up and 12mbit of down is a misnomer: You will be limited to only 5.5mbit of actual downstream. This varies based on the packet size, settings, distance of carrier, and protocol (such as IP, IPS, IPX, UDP, etc.) but is a good general rule. Some cable and DSL companies have come under scrutiny as a result of this indescrepency, as has Verizon for their FiOS service.

What is the definition of universal gate?

universal gates are the ones from which we can design other gates also. for eg. NAND and NOR gates. they help in forming the uniformity in the circuits.

How do you find the wireless network password?

First, what operating system are you running on the computers that are connected. This will determine whether we can do this easily through the windows GUI, or if we'll have to get it through less palatable means.

What are the main features of ADhoc network?

The main feature of an ad-hoc network is that there are temporary and do not require any cabling. The only connections required are the wireless connections in the devices. As a result there is very little setup to worry about.

What is a Acronym MODEM?

MOdulator-DEModulator, by names of processes which perform the main role in modems.

What is the advantages and disadvantages of Internet to the user?

The category says 'Computer Games' so I'll just list a few for those, then a few for general internet.

As far as computer games go, advantages include: More variation, playing with friends, instead of just learning to beat the computer you learn to create new strategies, you can make new friends.

Disadvantages: If you're new to a game and try playing it online you'll get destroyed, there are user created hacks, it can get laggy.

And for general internet:

Advantages

-Quick access to information, and media

-Socialize with existing friends and make new ones

-Pay for things from your home

-Online data storage

Disadvantages

-Information is often inaccurate, as it's all user based. The internet tends to operate on a 'majority rules' basis, so if the majority of people are saying something is correct, then that's way the internet will portray it. This fails to account for the fact that the majority of people aren't using original research or first hand experience, just regurgitating what they heard from someone else.

-Malware such as virus' can cost you thousands of dollars

-You'll probably spend too much time on the computer

Can you take your modem anywhere?

You can use a wireless modem if there is an unlocked signal available.

What is the main function of a modem in regards to a computer?

The modem on a computer translates digital signals into an analogue 'noise', and transmits it down a telephone line.

This is received by another modem at the other end, which captures the signals, and converts them back into data.

It allows for transmission of digital data over an analogue telephone line.

What is the purpose of a gateway?

Gateway is software placed in the router. Its function is protocol translation. When we need to connect two networks based on different protocols, then gateway is used by default. It acts as an entrance To see the default gateway of your system in cmd (command prompt), type "ipconfig." It shows the default gateway.

What uses a half duplex communication?

Duplex is a way devices like computer talk to each other. Half Duplex is only sending the information one time and hoping the information gets to the other end in a complete form. Full Duplex is sending a short piece of the message to the other end and waiting to tell if it is properly received before sending the next small piece of information.

What is ADSL?

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line ADSL connections are becoming more and more widely available and can provide an excellent internet connection. The connections work by splitting your phone line into two separate channels, one for data (internet) and one for voice (phone calls) which means you can talk on the phone and be connected to the internet at the same time. You will often see ADSL connection services advertised as having different speed specifications, below are some common configurations:

- 56Kbps/128Kbps

- 512Kbps/128Kbps

- 1Mbps/256Kbps Notice there are two values to each configuration, the first figure states the download speed and the second figure is the maximum upload speed. The acronym 'ADSL" stands for Asynchronus Digital Subscriber Line.

Asynchronous means that data rates for Upstream Throughput (transmission from your PC to the internet) and Downstream Throughput (Transmission from the internet to your PC) are not equal. Usually the downstream rate is 5-10 times faster than the upstream.

For most home users, this is preferred, as they will be receiving much more information than they will be sending.

Business users and Web designers may benefit more by SDSL (Synchronous DSL), where the upstream and downstream throughputs are the same, allowing for faster uploads, with a minor sacrifice in download speed.

How do you reset Cisco router password?

Power on the router and press the reset switch for 30 second which is located bottom of the router, after restart the router and it will asked u to give the user name and password for use. By default the user name : Admin & the password : Admin.

What are the three main part of the computer system?

CPU, RAM and the FSB which links them together, if you want to get detailed. The BIOS and CMOS are what gets the Operating System (Windows) talking to everything. Don't forget about what all these sit on - the holy motherboard. Then you have all the proprietaries - Hard Drives, DVD Drives, etc. Happy to Help 'Matt

How many GB are in one 2TB?

To be clear on the matter, 1TB, that is one Terabyte, is equal to 1,000,097,181,696 Bytes. 1GB, that is one Gigabyte, is equal to 1073741823 Bytes. When you divide the number of bytes in 1TB by the number of bytes in one GB, the answer is 931.413GB so doubling this answer, i.e. multiply by 2, one gets 1862.826GB in a 2TB HDD, and not 2048.

Do you need a phone line for dsl?

The first step in deploying wireless broadband is to get broadband service to your location. Broadband service is delivered by an ISP--Internet service provider--and can come to your home or place of business in different ways. The phone line is just one of many options today: * via a telephone line (DSL) * via the TV cable * via satellite * via a T-1 or T-3 dedicated circuit * via cellular wireless. Every one of these services will (or can*) terminate in a device that will provide one or more network ports, usually RJ-45 type. The high-speed network is available at that port, into which you can plug a computer, a router, a switch, other networked equipment, or a wireless router. The wireless router will have several network ports into which you can direct-connect networked devices (PCs, printers, VOIP devices, etc.). Plus the wireless router is your wireless access point, capable of communicating Ethernet traffic wirelessly to over a hundred different devices. Each device of course needs a wireless adapter to uphold its end of the communication and must be within range of the wireless router. So we see that it's quite possible to subscribe to a broadband service and supply wireless broadband access at your location without a telephone access point. _______________ * The cellular wireless access-point device usually plugs directly into a computer.

What is a wire used to connect some computer to the internet?

An "Ethernet" cable. These are different size from normal telephone cables/connectors. They are usually yellow or green in color. You are also going to need a modem or modem/router to receive the internet feed from either a cable company, telephone wire, or DSL.

When was high speed internet invented?

Developed in the 1950's for use by the telephone companies, the T1 line is the basic digital line service for business applications. It has a fixed 1.5 Mbps bandwidth in each direction. That bandwidth can be allocated to network data, converged VoIP and computer data, or segregated into 24 individual standard telephone channels. If you need more bandwidth, T1 lines can be bonded to create typically 2x to 9x the individual line capacity. Usually higher bandwidth needs that these are assigned to DS3 circuits at 45 Mbps for cost reasons. However, in remote locations where there is no installed DS3 service, it might be cheaper to install multiple bonded T1 lines to get the required bandwidth. T3 bandwidth provides data transfer speeds of 45 megabits per second (mbps) and contains 672 individual channels that are each equal to voice grade telephone lines, capable of transmitting online video shoots, real time video, and large databases over a busy network. T3 bandwidth is by and large, used in large universities and companies that have large number of users in the same network.

What are two components are required to set up an Internet connection?

The basic components of a network are:

Internet Service Provider

A router/hub or a server where you can connect either wired or wireless or both

A networking software

Personal Computer

Well, you can create a network between computers without the internet. But be sure that all wires are connected and the modem(comes with your ISP) is working if you're using wired connection. If you're using Wi-Fi, be sure that all your PCs are Wi-Fi enabled if ever they have those features.

There should be a Network and Sharing Center in the Control Panel where you can set up your network options and configure it depending on what connection plan you have. Just follow up the wizard and enter the necessary information (most of the the time given by your ISP).
