Linksys Wusb54gs & Wrt54gsuk Wireless Networking

Hi Folks

I have just purchased this kit from the PC world sale. Currently I have a BT phone socket (tesco broadband ADSL) in one bedroom and run a long cable to another bedroom where my desktop is.

To set this up I take it I connect the phone line to the modem then the modem to the router. I then just need to put the usb adaptor into the back of the pc in the other room and run the setup prog.

Any advice appreciated

Marco

    Right without seeing the instructions, the way you are saying is correct.


    You should have splitter>>>>router>>>>>>usb>>>>>comp

    Unless the instructions tell you to plug in modem
