Wireless and Wired Router




By jeanann123 on Jul 25, 2008

" "
I currently have a desktop and a laptop connected to a wired router. I need to keep them that way. I am going to be adding another laptop that I would like to use wirelessly. Can I use a wired and wireless router together? If so, what wireless router would be recommended? Or is there some other way to make this work? I need the wireless to go throughout my entire house, upstairs and downstairs.

Thanks.
JA

Yes you can use a wired and wireless router together.
You can also use an Access Point to just give you wireless but since the AP and wireless routers cost about the same better just get a wireless router. You can also just do away with your current router and just use the wireless router since they also have ports on them.
If you need help setting this up PM me.

You have to enable the wireless on your laptop. You can refer to your laptop manual regarding this.
