Hello,
I would be grateful for advice.
I have an Orange Livebox connected to my Windows Vista pc.
There is an Windows XP pc in another room which I'd like to connect wirelessly to the Livebox.
could anyone advise on how I go about this?
Thank you,
Scott

Assuming that you already have a wireless adapter installed on the XP machine, you need to set the Livebox into pairing mode. The full details will be in your instructions but usually it is a case of pressing a button on the Livebox or turning it off and then back on and connecting straight away.0

And make sure you use proper wireless security encryption when connecting to the new PC. Use WPA not WEP (not sure what the default on the Livebox is, but it will be in the instructions).No free lunch, and no free laptop
