disables wireless connectionI recently added another wireless laptop both using cisco airnet wireless
cards. When I use one laptop I disable the wireless card on the 2nd laptop. I originally called my DSL provider who spent 20 minutes with me then told me that whenever it happens again I should just run "services.msc" and enable something. The problem is that I cannot remeber what that "something" is, any help? Also, what did I do wrong in the configuring that disables the wireless card? -- txs Hi
If I understand you correctly you need to disable one computer's Internet capacity in order to use a second computer? If this is so, you probably need a Router. The content of the following links can serve as a basic tutorial concerning Sharing Internet, and using Wireless; it is short and to the point. The three first pages were written ages ago. You might ignore the prices, and the specific choice of hardware, stick with the principles they are still the same. Basic Options for Internet Connection Sharing - http://www.anandtech.com/guides/viewfaq.html?i=105 Hubs, routers, switches, DSL, LANs, WANs...? - http://www.anandtech.com/guides/viewfaq.html?i=48 Wireless Principles - http://www.anandtech.com/guides/viewfaq.html?i=122 Otherwise if you have a Wireless problem, may be this can Help.

Thank you but I did not explain myself properly. I don't manually disable my wireless connection it becomes disabled when I open the wireless properties screen on the 2nd laptop. Previously I was told that when that happened I should go to the RUN command and start "services.msc" , select one of the categories and manually start the wireless connection. Unfortunately I cannot remember what category it is that I need to select in order to start the service. I will check the url's you listed, thank you. -- Show quoteHide quotetxs "Jack (MVP-Networking)." wrote: > Hi > If I understand you correctly you need to disable one computer's Internet > capacity in order to use a second computer? > If this is so, you probably need a Router. > The content of the following links can serve as a basic tutorial concerning > Sharing Internet, and using Wireless; it is short and to the point. > The three first pages were written ages ago.

It is not clear to me why it gets disabled. However unless you provide more info. about the make up of your Network, and Internet connection it is not possible to help. As for the specific question. Assuming that it relates to Windows Zero Configuration, look here. http://www.ezlan.net/wzc.html Read carefully the this link that I previously posted, http://www.ezlan.net/wireless.html Jack (MVP-Networking).
