SETTING UP A BROADBAND CONNECTION
First you need to decide what type of broadband and Internet service you require and these are -
1. DSL that uses your existing telephone line.
2. Cable that uses a cable service and can include a cable TV service.
3. A wireless 3G network uses the mobile/cell phone network and can be separate or combine with your cell phone account. This type of Internet connection uses an USB wireless device shaped like an USB memory stick.
Note - Combined services generally offer discount pricing and may include a modem/wireless router.

If you use a wireless router with the DSL or Cable Internet service then your laptop with a wireless card can then connect to the Internet. You can also connect to a free WiFi hot spots like McDonalds, Star Bucks, the Airport etc. using the wireless card in your laptop.
If you use the wireless 3G wireless broadband service, then you can access the Internet anywhere where your ISP has 3G wireless coverage. You need to check the service coverage area where you need Internet service.
Once you decide what type of broadband your require, then you need to check with the various Internet Service providers to see if they can offer and the cost of the various plans.
Note the download limits and the associated additional costs if you exceed the monthly download limits. Once you sign up with a Internet Service provider, their documentation will include setting up instructions and/or installation CD.

You need a 9 volt 1 amp power supply. Try e-bay using the model number. Should be $10-15.

Turn on your computer, connect the enthernet cable to the ethernet port of your computer (Lan Card Port) and connect the other end of the ethernet cable to one of the router's ethernet port (not to the Internet Port), turn on the router and open your browser on your computer and type in http://192.168.2.1 and press enter or press Go. You'll need to login to the page. Please follow this LINK and follow the instructions.
Hope this will help you.
Let me know if you need further help.
Good Luck.

Hi,

If you want to set it up that way, you need more than just two routers. You need to purchase a hub. Connect the HUB to your Gateway, Connect the ROUTERS to the HUB, Connect the computers, printers, etc., to the router. The setup of the routers now, depends on your Internet Service Provider. Ask them for the range of IP Addresses allocated to the service that you have.
