How do i add a laptop to my home internet?
How do I add a Wireless Router to my current wired network?

I just got a new laptop with a wireless connection but the company I work for does not have a wireless router. This is the best I can describe the network: They have several switches connected to a fortinet firewall and they use windows 2003 server. I think they have a T1 line for internet, not sure on models of the routers and switches. I need to be able to use my laptop as if I was wired to the network, need internet and server connections. I have a Linksys WRT54G Router that I use at home, can I use something like that on my work network? What about a WAP? (We don’t have an IT person anymore and he left the network in a very bad way, any help would be appreciated! btw, I do have access to all passwords and things for the current network, I’m just not sure the best way to describe what we have.) I need to know the best location (i.e. before firewall, after router) to connect the wireless router, and what configurations I need to make it work.

Very easy.

First : Purshase your wirless router
Second: replace your wrired router with your wireless router
Plug your cat5 into the back of your new wireless
the same way you had it on your wired router.
Most wireless routers comes with an installation CD I recommend using it.

You can also use the gateway installation address which should start with 192.1 etc.. the full address should be in your
manual who comes with the CD installation.

I recommend WEP it is easier . WAP is more secure but requires more time to setup , also WAP sometimes requires more troubleshooting. I will go to WEP and change WEP password every 3 months.

Yes. It’s definitely safe. I do it all the time. It’s also more convenient than dragging around yet another charger while you’re travelling.

It’s probably a virus on your laptop if it’s considerably slowing down your internet speed.

Run a decent anti-virus.

If that doesn’t work, contact your ISP

How do I upgrade my laptop to increase the internet speed?
How do I lower the ping on my computer and increase my internet speed?

I use a linksys router to connect to xanadoo. Then my laptop connects wireless to my router. I think I am just barely to slow. How do I increase the speed?

a wireless connection is always going to go slower then a wired connection, but everything on your side of the wire depends on the wire you use(for example your ethernet cable) has a minimal affect on your connection, on the other side of the router (that is your internet provider) i assume that is xanadoo effects how fast you can send data to and receive data from web servers. but for your actual computer i recommend clearing your temporary files and cookies and such often, and making sure that you are running fairly new hardware

What brand of laptop should I look into buying considering my situation?
What brand of laptop should I look into buying considering my situation?

About 18 months ago I purchased a dell laptop, which I now hate with a passion. It overheats and shuts down after about thirty minutes of use. I would like to purchase a new Laptop for gaming purposes while avoiding the same problem. I am not interested in a Mac or building my own computer. I am going to use this laptop primarily to play World of Warcraft. My budget is anything less than $1000. What provider/brand would you recommend?

a widows vista or windows 7 with a inhanced gaming card or buy a normak vista and or windows 7 and buy a seperate inhavced gaming card (gaming card=graphics card) whitch the people at the store will put in your new compure for you, this will add up to about 700-800 dollars

Laptop battery tips! Is it good or bad to run the Laptop without the battery?
Laptop battery tips! Is it good or bad to run the laptop without the battery?

I do this constantly: When I am watching videos or doing something that can drain my laptop’s battery really fast, i take out the batery and leave the laptop connected. Is this good or bad?

it’s the best! assuming you’re not working on anything (that needs to be constantly saved), it’s the best for the battery.

My laptop computer is overheating and freezing in the process?
Is My Computer Freezing From Reinstalling XP Or Overheating?

I recently wiped laptop computer and reinstalled Windows XP, and now it keeps freezing … The mouse still moves, but I can’t click anything or even use the keyboard to navigate. Sometimes the system will kick back in and start working again, but usually I just get annoyed and do a hard restart.

Honestly, this doesn’t sound like a heat issue. After you reinstalled XP, did you do any windows updates or driver updates? My guess is a video driver is at fault. Try going to the laptop manufacturers site and download any updates for drivers.

I have a toshiba laptop that i got 4 days ago but im returning it because it got blue screen of death which im pretty sure isnt a good sign. Im going to exchange it for a different one at best buy. Which Laptops do you guys think are reliable and can handle gamin and normal use. My price range is about $500-$600. Please leave answers!

Well there’s nothing that is going to be even decent for gaming at that price so I wouldn’t have high hopes for that. If you play like non graphic intensive games like MMORPGs you should be fine.

I want to and sometimes it even bothers my usb mouse to work bad. How do I turn off the laptop mouse ?

Control panel, pointing devise/mouse, touch pad tab, adjust or disable, click apply and save.

How come my Laptop keeps disconnecting from my wireless network only at night?
How come my laptop keeps disconnecting from my wireless network only at night?

Every night, my router keeps transferring data slower and slower until it finally disconnects from my laptop. It never happens during the day and I’m positive that it is not the dsl or the laptop, but the router.

Do you use any online backup services? A client of mine used Dells backup services which transferred files at night, which caused the wireless network to drop due to the high-bandwidth usage. Also, try power cycling the router (unplug it, wait 20 seconds or so, plug it back in)

Apple laptops are good for the arts like photography, media, making films. I make some short films and i love using apples for this. On the other hand if you are used to Microsoft the apple software is very hard to get used to but when or if you do you’ll love it.

Dell laptops are probably the best for you they can do graphic design they are very easy to use. I have a dell and it can last through about anything i dropped it sat on it and it’s still holding up fine. Dells are just good all around

Gateways are crap don’t get one they break way to easy. there just all around bad computers.

What is the best laptop brand to purchase?
How can we know what is the best laptop that we should opt to buy?Any specification?

To be more specific,what makes an ideal laptop to purchase?Any specifications about internal memory,programs and other features to be look out for?I would really appreciate if you could provide any potential brand of Laptops to be look out for.Thanks in advance for answering(:

Let me put it a bit differently
My ideal laptop may turn out to be pretty useless to you. So every body’s needs are different, right

Why are you wanting to buy this laptop
What programs / applications do you plan on that
How important is portability, or does the laptop stay indoors mostly
What is your planned budget
Any other preferences, and details are most welcome
Greater the detail, the better we can zoom in

just btw am posting a very good system, for routine and entertainment usage
