Hi everyone. I'm new here, but I've been searching, and your forum came up. I'm hoping you'll be able to give me some solutions for my wireless network problems.
Right, what I've got first: I have a computer with a MSI PC54G2 Wireless IEEE802.11g PCI Card Adapter and a laptop with a Belkin 802.11g Wireless USB 2.0 Network Adapter.
I've been told that I can use the former as a virtual router, and then connect to my wireless network with the latter.
What I've done so far: Installed both of them, and they both work. I've run the configuration on the MSI thing, and created my network (I think). My laptop has now connected to my network, as is my computer. So, both are connected together it seems. However, that's as far as I can get.
Although the two say they're both connected to the same network, and give me network stats, like signal strength and link quality, I don't seem to be able to have any communication between the two machines.
On my laptop, my Belkin Wireless Monitor, shows that my Laptop is connected to my router, but then has a big cross between my router and the internet.
Because of this, I'm assuming that's the problem. But, how do I solve that? Does anyone have any suggestions where I go from here? Thanks a lot everyone.
