What ISP are you with
If AOL look at their networking site and thaty will help
I have got
US robotics wireless router in the dining room downstairs (most central point in house and allows tinternet in garage) This is a small wireless router , Then sat next to this is a broadband router jobby
I have the broadband modem thingy going intro the WL router by a short RJ45 lead (big phone plug) this is all hidden away in cupboard
Then on the desktop upsatirs i have a USB2 dongle thats wifi and came with the uS robotics router plugged into the back of the PC allwosing it to use the router and tinternet
My laptops all have a US robotics wireless card in also came with the US robotics oruter allowing taht to use the internet all the time too
The settings i did are
The modem is set using POPPOE and you enter your usernameand password as set by your ISP mine is something like
nigelsherwood@aol.com adn the password is someting like cockhead
This then allows the modem to connect straight to yoru ISP
Then the RJ45 cable that i plugged into modem to router means that the wireless network also can access the net allowing all the PCs on the network access then set the router to use DCHP which automatically gives out IP addressess to your other systems to connect
I even have WiFi on my palm and can surf the net on the shitter , This took about 40 minutes to set up and i had NO previuos experience etc
Heres where i got the kit
