Now, in order to setup a wireless network you need the following:
broadband internet (dial up will not work!) or ADSL internet
one modem that we can connect to our wireless router
one wireless router
one wireless network adapter per computer
cables and all the equipment that come with our modem and our router
and patience of course
The equipment shown above should be enough to setup a wireless network. For each additional computer, you will just need an extra wireless network adapter.
Follow your manufacturer's guidelines to configure your wireless router on your computer. This is step number one - configuring your wireless router.
Step 2 is to connect your wireless router to your broadband and or ADSL modem. Internet lights and power lights should be alight on both your modem and your router. If they're not, perform the setup again until they come on.
Step 3 is to connect each adapter to individual computer and then install drivers for both adapters. After that, restart your computer and here you go, you should now be able to connect to the Internet wirelessly.
If problems occur, make sure in Internet Explorer settings you choose Detect Settings Automatically. If however, you are using your ISP's IP address, then type in that address or your router's IP address (it will look something like 192.68.1.1 or similar).
If you encounter some really complicated issues, at times, they are not even complicated, just follow the instructions and you will find the whole process as easy as installing Windows.
