I have a Windows XP SP3 desktop with a NetGear WG111v2 USB wireless adapter and I get my internet connection from my Blackberry 8320 (I connect my BBerry device to my PC and start Blackberry Desktop Manager and choose to use internet access of my phone for my PC). I want to be able to make this internet connection available to other devices on the network wirelesly. I also have a nook ebook reader and a laptop which I would occassionaly like to connect to internet via the connection described above. How to go about making Blackberry internet connection shared accross the network? I tried Internet Connection Sharing Wizard, but I ended up with nothing to show up for.
I have two computers, a laptop and a desktop. Both are running Win7 64 bit.My laptop's wireless card went kabloom and I'm too broke to afford a wireless adapter for my laptop. So I have the next best thing, connect the desktop to the laptop and share my desktop's internet connection with.But of course, it's not that simple. The problem is that the laptop isn't able to connect to the internet. I have shared my desktop's internet to my laptop before using the same cable and everything and it used to work, but now it doesn't.Now comes the 'weird' part. I reversed the order, or I shared my laptop's wireless connection with my desktop. Although slow and choppy, it did work and I was able to access the internet from my desktop using a connection to my laptop with a cable.
Have just acquired new used HP desktop running Windows Vista. System has a Broadcom NeXtreme Gigabit Ethernet card installed, which gets me to the internet OK when using a LAN cable from wireless router. But I can't make wireless connection. Vista tells me that I need a wireless network adapter.Am I missing something? Is it possible to change some settings to get the Broadcom card to go wireless? If not, what sort of adapter is needed, and is such adapter external or will it have to be installed in the system box?
Should i get a wireless adapter Or a wireless repeater Which would be better for a better connection?My router is down stairs and my xbox is upstairs.I could get the wireless adapter upstairs then do an ethernet cable straight to my xbox.
Below is how I have established network between my PC and my laptop at home (being novice in networking, it took me few days to achieve the feat). And it is working perfectly. I can easily share files between them.Laptop

I have connected the Desktop PC to the router using a LAN cable, and laptop to router over WiFi. Both, PC and laptop are running on Windows 7 OS, are on same HomeGroup, have same username / password. Also, I have connected the Ethernet cable to LAN port 1 of the router.Click here to view a graphical representation of the network. Can't post image here, because I don't have 10 reputation points.Now, what I want is use connect to Internet using a 3G USB modem on one device and share it over the network on the other. I tried Huawei and Micromax 3G USB modem. Both obtain a new IP address whenever I connect to Internet (means they have dynamic IPs). Rest, both have Subnet Mask as 255.255.255.255 and Default Gateway as 0.0.0.0. In that case, I cannot directly share Internet from the modem. Preferred DNS is blank for now in both, laptop and PC.What I am planning to do is to connect to Internet on laptop using the 3G modem and share the Internet connection over laptop's Wi-Fi (as hotspot) using Connectify, which I have done already. That, I suppose, will broadcast a static IP to connect to.Now what I can't figure out is that what changes should I make to the network settings of the router and the PC so that PC connects to the Internet broadcast by Connectify?
I know this sounds like a crazy question but i travel a lot and i like to play my PS3. When i go to a new hotel some have a open internet connection and others don't. I want to connect my laptop to the wifi and share it to a separate router with a WPA2-PSK so that i have a more secure connection on the play station. Now first is this even possible to do? I use to beable to share my internet connection from my phone through my laptop to my ps3. Now when i try to do that just with the wifi in the hotels it doesnt have a high enough security setting.
I have 2 lap tops with windows 7 with wifi and 2 windows 7 desktops which do not have wifi connectivity, I have made a adhoc connection and shared the network making one lap top as a hotspot. How to connect the rest of two desktops using LAN?
I have MTS data card (model ZTE AC 2787) USB dongle which I am using to connect to internet. If I use it directly on my laptop or desktop, it's working fine.I want to share this internet connection over my wifi / LAN. I tried to configure virtual hotspot via connectify and 'virtual router by codeplex' but all failed. Even I tried with my friends 3g wifi router but it wont working anywahere.
I'm trying to share my wifi internet from my pc to my old mac ive connected them via ethernet cable, from my understanding the mac has been assigned an ip address, but I can not use the internet on it.
Canon T3i hooked up to a laptop running ExtraWebcam and Yawcam.Yawcam running an HTML and Stream output to the network/web.I would like people to be able to access that video from the [the internet + network or internet or network] (those are the options/possibilities and the order in which I'd prefer).I am able to get people to access it via the network, but not the net. I'm using my Samsung Galaxy SIII on Sprint to tether (obviously not tethering if I'm only going to the network). Unfortunately, not only can I not access the stream via the internet, I can't even ping the phone.I'm pretty sure I need to open up/forward some ports, but I understand that that's not possible seeing as it's Sprint's network and not mine.
I will also have access to a local wifi network if there's a way to 'piggyback' off of that for web access to the stream even if I don't have access to the router control panel. I'm not sure if I'll have a hard wire connection to a router or not. I can, however, change the ports that the stream is set to.(also, I can bring a separate wireless router to connect to my tethered computer to open up the internet enabled stream to the network?)Given a laptop with a wifi card, a phone that can tether, a wifi network, and, if necessary, an extra wireless router, how can I stream from Yawcam and make it available to the internet if I DON'T have access to the wifi network's port forwarding? Note that I CAN edit the ports in Yawcam.
Can I make them share a single HDD? Like for booting windows, loading games and stuff? All 6 computers to have ONE single HDD? Will save me tonnes of money if this is even possible?
I have a wifi dongle with signal enhancement on my desk top computer. I get a message that I am connected with a signal strength of 67%. However, I cannot get any website to open. The router is working for 3 other computers further away than mine. It was working but just stopped a couple of days ago. I am about 25ft away in a straight line.
I have one laptop and a wifi dongle and a router. I want to receive internet on my wireless device of my laptop and want to broadcast or share internet from wifi dongle(TP-LINK).
I have a Linux OS running here with a broadband DSL connection. Everything here is okay. A friend of mine has a 3G modem with a slow connection (I don't know the exact speed - near dial-up).
Well, I was thinking of setting up a VPN between mine and his PC, using Hamachi. I read on LogMeIn Hamachi website (while logged in) in a page to set up a VPN, where there are three types of network:
Mesh Network In a mesh network, every member is connected to every other member. It is a typical choice when it's essential to reach every member of the network.
I am using my LAN Connection for file sharing and internet on my Office Pc (Windows XP). I have a wireless external adapter (Alfa) which I use for WAN Connection. But my PC doesn't use the internet from WAN Connection till I disconnect the LAN Cable. I want to use LAN Connection for file sharing and database in the office only and Internet on WAN Connection.
how can I make the WAN Connection as default and to guide the OS to use this while the LAN Cable is still plugged in. I am using AVG Internet Security 2011 & it's firewall.
I have a laptop and a desktop I want to use while there. I know the laptop will work, but I'm not sure about the desktop. I have a wireless network now but my desktop is hard wired via ethernet to the wireless router. I have DSL service now through my ISP. My question I guess is do I have to have a land line at my new location to connect my desktop to the internet or is the wireless technology built in and the ethernet cable is superfluous? I hooked up everything myself for my home network but just followed directions, so I have no clue what everything does. I just wondered about the desktop being able to connect to the internet. Under Network Adapters in Device Manager I have 3 items: 802.11n Wireless LAN card, Microsoft Virtual Miniport Adapter, and a Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller.[CODE]
e've been using Connectify to share the internet connection in our house and it was working beautifully, then it stopped after we upgraded to pro but now it's working again. I'm using a windows xp and my sister is using windows 7. We were both connected to the wireless network but none of the computers could get on the internet; so I restarted my mom's laptop (which is the hotspot) and my sis's laptop started browsing but mine didn't and it's still not browsing. And when i check the wireless status it says "Sending 786 packets, receiving 5 packets"
I have 2 ethernet cards (1 on board & another PCI ), 1 switch & 1 static ip to connet my broadband connection. I connected the broadband cable to onboard ethernet & configured the ip,subnet mask, gateway, DNS1 & DNS2. Internet connection was established. I also established an another cable between PCI ethernet card and switch. I configured the 2nd card to ip 192.168.1.1 . But when I tried to share a connection, my internet stopped to work.
I want to share the PPPOE internet connection between my Desktop and Laptop. The desktop has WIN7 and laptop has Win Vista. the desktop is having 2 LAN Cards.
new laptop running windows 7 home premium? i connect to the internet using mobile broadband device which works fine but i have been trying for a week now to share that connect with my local area network connection to access my ps3 (as i did with xp) to no success. 1st the LAN states that is is an "unidentified network: so when i tried to set up internet connection sharing, it would say that the wimax network adapter was "shared" but there would be no internet or network access though LAN. now i cannot even start ics as i am getting an error message that states "an error occurred while Internet Connection Settings was being enabled (null)..
my system an emachine e350 wouldnt share wireless connection to other computers but can receive perfectly well.when i try to set up an adhoc network,it does not show me turn on internet connection sharing,so when other computers try to connect,it just shows they re connected only on my system but not on the other ones and they cant access the internet also.the network discovery too wont stay on, every time i turn it on and save changes it goes back to off.
i want to share my internet connection in LAN. i have windows 7 in my system, and in my LAN PC having both XP-SP2 & Win7. I have a Teracom ADSL router (4Port) & D-link 8 Port Switch. i want to share my connection like this :
Router --->My Computer (Host)----> Then other computer in the LAN.
I'm having 3 desktop computers. Out of these three, one PC (PC1, windows7) is connected to internet modem and other two (PC2 with XP,PC3 with XP) are sharing internet connection.
In PC1 I've installed Hamachi Logme In (virtual network). This software also creates one "Hamachi Network Interface" in "Network connections".The Problem is that each time I start/reboot PC1, I get connected to other 2 PCs but can't share internet connection, until I toggle (enable/disable) the state of "Hamachi Network Interface"
(PC1 is at some distance with PC2 and PC3, and each time I need to remotely login to PC1 and toggle Hamachi network in order to access internet).
