Do they make a wireless router with an internal modem? What I would like to do is go into my living room with my laptop, plug in my wirless card and make connection to the wireless router (plugged into my telephone jack) in my den and dialup my ISP. Is this possible? I'm looking for the easiest solution.
Thanks for your time.
Yes but I've never seen a cheap one. Apple's costs nearly $200 new.
If you are running Windows on your laptop and another PC connected with a dial-up modem in it, and assuming that the PC with the modem ALSO has a NIC in it . . .
The easiest solution would be to enable Internet Connection Sharing on both PCs, and to hook them both up to the same wireless router. It will be really slow, but it will do what you want it to do. -Dave
THANKS FOR YOUR REPLY. I WENT AHEAD AND ORDERED A "WiFlyer."
BINGO! I WENT AHEAD AND ORDERED A "WiFlyer" AFTER READING A NUMBER OF REVIEWS.
