My home network consists of three computers: the main computer (AP) connects to the Internet via a wired DSL connection from Verizon. The other two computers share the Internet connection through ASUS 802.11b cards that access the AP in order to get access to the Internet.
Recently I acquired a blackbery wireless phone/device and installed the software that came with it, namely the VZManager from Verizon and the Desktop Manager from Blackberry. After installing the software the two clients are not able to access the Internet. Since I know that the wireless cards and the blackberry use radio signals, I stopped using the blackberry phone but to no avail. After I uninstalled the VZManager and the Blackberry software I was able to regain connectivity in the two clients.
Is there a way to make the ASUS 802.11b cards compatible with the Verizon VZManager software or with the blackberry Desktop Manager? Can someone diagnose remotely what the problem is? Any input will be greatly appreciated.
My setup is as follows:
Access Point:
Windows XP Home Edition
Asus A8v mobo Deluxe
Athlon64 3500
80 gig Western Digital IDE Hard drive
1 Gig pc3200 memory
Nvidia Geforce Fx5700 v. 91.94
Asus wi-fi@home wiressless card 802.11g AP
