Help, internet connection

[Tiff]

I am not to sure, is this the right place to ask, but if i am wrong please correct me....

I am getting a new computer... so there will be 2 computers in the house.. and i was wondering is it possible to make both computers have internet connection.. i mean.. for both of them to be able go online at the same time?...

I use broadband connection currently...



Thanks!!!

hey, thanks for the site, it was great help, but i am still stuck (sorry, i am so bad at tech stuff >.<" ) well, at least i have got it kind of started, i know i am going to use the 2nd method on the site...

but all the confused with alll tech on the page???

I found a WL-530G Asus pocket router (what that is i have no idea what it really is.. there is no instructions manual on it! )... it looks weird.. i think i am missing the switch thing it was talking about on the site....

well i am not too sure...

Im not familiar with that type of router...i have a linksys here...
Is that one a wireless one?
what operating systems are on the 2 pcs?
If the router is wireless is that how you want to connect?
Does the PC's have wireless cards installed? or are u connecting them via eternet cables to the router?

Go here and grab the user manual

are u using either of the pcs at the moment to access the internet? and if so...are u using them with that new router ?

to find out wat operating system u have go to control panel and click System..itll be listed under the General tab

the pcs in question..are they desktops ? or laptops maybe ? IF they are desktops then im guessing they didnt come with a wireless cards installed so ull have to use eternet cable to wire them up to the router...

you need to decide HOW u want to connect the pcs to the router...by cable OR wireless......
