Setup wirelessI have a wireless cable modem (SMC Networks) attached to one computer. I have
another computer that I want to have access to that internet. The second computer has a linksys wireless adapter (Linksys Wireless G, USB network adapter). I can get the second computer to see the wireless internet and connnect ( it downloaded a bunch of updates for windows) but it won't load any websites. What am I doing wrong? Both are running Windows XP. I tried to set up a home network thinking that would help but no luck. Any help? Please. On Jan 20, 4:17 am, Janet <Ja***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote:
