Greetings All,
The situation I'm asking about today is arising from a need in my home. I currently have a DSL connection and a Wireless router which was purchased and installed for nothing other than my sons Ipod touch and has always worked perfectly the one and only computer in my home is hard wired to the router and is of course set as the server of the network, I will try to expalin below exactly what im doing without making it so long its just to much to bother reading.
I now want to add another piece of equipment to the network and have just ordered the parts I need to do so, This new piece of equipment is a Kenwood Entre Entertainment Hub for my home theatre. My issue is that Im not sure if this hub has the ability to go wireless as it is limited on which USB to ETHERNET Adapters will even work with it.
The Adapter I chose is the Belkin F5D5050 which is 1 of only 5 that kenwood says are usable. In searching around I have found it next to impossible to find a way to convert the ethernet back to USB on the other end of the Belkin adapter to allow me to use the LinkSys WUSB54G Wireless-G USB adapter to make the Entertainment hub wireless.
So all that said What I now plan to do is put a LinkSys WMP54G Wireless-G PCI adapter in my computer and move the DSL modem and Router into the Home Theatre to allow me to hard wire the Kenwood hub. The big question I have is, if I do that will there be any problem with my computer remaining as the server on the network if it is wireless and with another device hard wired to the router when it will no longer be hard wired?
Thanks Very much in advance for any and all information you can give to help me settle my mind as to any arising problems.
