What do you do when your gateway doesnt respond to a network request?
you have to check if all the network devices communicate each other! how to do this: from all the PC's type: start > run > cmd >ipconfig this will show some stats of your network keep in mind that all the IP's of your network should have the two or at least the first set of numbers different :-)
What cat Ethernet cable is the best?
The best Ethernet cable is CAT-6 (UTP), if you have enough money you can get STP for better performance and stability.
Can router be used to measure the traffic on a network?
It actually depends on the router. If you are using a standard Cisco router, you can just issue the command:
sh int fa0
Somewhere in the middle of the output, you'll see two lines that look like this:
5 minute input rate 105000 bits/sec, 33 packets/sec
5 minute output rate 38000 bits/sec, 30 packets/sec
This will give you a rough idea of how that interface is being utilized. There are also numerous open-source solutions out there that will graph that via SNMP (MRTG or OpManager comes to mind).
If you are inquiring about standard home DSL/cable routers, then usually the answer is no. Most vendors (including Cisco-owned Linksys) don't provide that kind of information in their web-based administration software.
How do you enable an internal wireless network adapter?

How many octets in ip address?
IPv4 addresses have 4 octets, each octet separated by a period. For example, at this time, one of Yahoo's servers has an ip address of 67.195.160.76.
Is a Ethernet box the same as a router?
No, they are not the same. A router can connect several Ethernet networks together. Ethernet is the name of a layer 2 protocol.
What protocols are used to inquire if an address is reachable on the Internet?
Domain Name System (DNS) and Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) are used for address resolution. Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) is also used to determine if an address is reachable.
DNS maps a hostname to an IP address and ARP is used to map an address to a physical network hardware address.
ICMP messages are typically generated in response to network errors for diagnostics and route tracing but are used to ping an address.
How do you Reset a linksys router?
The router must have a reset button (hold the button pushed for 5 seconds). If not, u can reset the router from management.
to allow for transmission on two separate LANs at the same time.
Perhaps the most common application of dual Ethernet is in firewall machines.
How do you host a Halo CE server with your foreign IP address not your local 192 one?
Most routers (even home routers) have a feature known as port forwarding; you set the ports for Halo to forward to your 192 based server. The net result is that external users are routed to your server by using an external IP address and don't know that this is happening.
For example, if a game or an application uses port 5000 to communicate with the server, set port 5000 to the 192.168 address of your server. If your external IP address for the router is (for example) 31.44.55.66, then users can get to your server by using the 31 address, but packets for the game will be routed to your 192.168 server which is internal.

I don't Think You'll be able to do that without a cable or router
you can get a cable from about 45m for around $30AU.
Another thing is that you could try to move the dsl modem upstairsbut oh well.

Just log in in the d-link router wireless go in DHCP server setting and choose disable after that apply and restart if necessary. It's a little bit problematic to put correct static ip addresses. The idea is static ip-address in d-link router wireless should be in the same subnetwork with linksys router but it should not have the same ip address.
How do you hook up a wireless router to a desktop computer?
PLug an ethernet cord into your router port and the other end into your computer
You must be taking Cabling at ITT Tech...
You can find the answer in your text book (Cabling: The Complete Guide to Copper and Fiber-Optic Networking) Fourth Edition: Andrew Oliviero / Bill Woodward.
It is on page 8, top paragraph. The IEEE maintains the industry standards for Ethernet Protocols (or applications). This is part of the 802.3 series of standards and includes applications such as 1000Base-T, 1000Base-SX, 10GBase-T, and 10GBase-SR.
How do you add an hp printer to a mac or PC wireless network?

Can a Wii consul plug directly to a router through a USB cord?
Internet cannot travel through a USB cable, you would have to buy an ethernet cord and an ethernet adapter or use the Wii's wireless capabilities.
What is also known as gigabit Ethernet?
Gigabit Ethernet is also known as 1000 mega bits per seconds (Mbps). It is a part of the family of Ethernet computer networking and communication standards.
Serial transmission is a method of transmitting data where one bit is transmitted after another in a single wire.
Serial transmission is usually used to transmit data between two computers as it is less expensive, yet at a cost of a slightly slow speed. A minimum of two wires is needed for serial transmission, which is less compared to a minimum of eight wires in parallel transmission.
Serial transmission is used to send data over long distances as the bits are less likely to get out of order. It is used in devices such as modems, bar code readers and light pens .
How do you find primary dns secondary dns subnet mask and default router on a mac?
start > run > type 'cmd' > then type ipconfig /all.
