black.ops Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Is there anyway that I could have WiFi for my laptop and a PDA but have wired for my desktops? Is it possible to connect a hub to the WiFi router for it? I want to know for when the DS comes out, since I would like to be able to go online with it at home.

petroid Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 Well, if one of the computers (say the laptop) has both wired and wireless, and is running Windows XP, yo can bridge the connections. Select both wired and wireless in network connections, right click, and choose "Bridge Connections". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weasel Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 Yes it's possible. The wildly popular Linksys WRT54G has wireless G plus 4 wired ports. If you have more than 4 desktops you can connect the uplink port on a hub or switch to one of the 4 router ports and expand like crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
