a few months ago i was asking about wireless n and the basics on how to go wireless in my house. so no i have the equipment (or so i think) and am trying to figure everything out. so here's the deal
my pc: dell xps 400
laptop: compaq persario
modem: linksys cable modem
wireless router: linksys wireless g broadband router
notebook adaptor: linksys wireless g adaptor
internet:comcast cable
the problem is that i can't find any instructions on what i want to do. the goal is to still keep the pc hard wired into the modem, and then have the laptop wireless. what i did was plug in an eithernet cable into the back of the modem and ran it into the internet port on the router. after that i get a wlan light, power, but no eithernet light on the router. the internet on the pc still functions. the laptop isn't recieving any data. besides on how the modem and router are connected, i fallowed all of the instructions from linksys on which order everything should be done and so on. i have power cycled everything mutiple times to see if that was it. so now i am lost. can anybody help me out? thanks
