When I load my Internet Explorer it comes up with the "This page can not be displayed." I use wireless 802.11 and Internet Explorer as my browser. I have wireless signal strength but can get connected to the internet. I have tried everything I can think of. Any suggestions?
I’m trying to connect my 360 to an access point but I’m having some trouble. Quick overview:
We have a belkin wireless router upstairs but my xbox is downstairs. I don’t have a wireless adapter for the xbox but I have another router (that can be used as an access point). What I want to do is set up the access point to receive the wireless signal and plug the xbox into the access point so the xbox "thinks" its a LAN connection. The router I set up as an access point is a D-link wbr-2310.
I’ve uploaded some pictures (just click the following link then click either scan 1 or scan 2). Scan 2 is just showing the location of the equipment through the house, scan 1 is a diagram of what I’m trying to do (dotted line is wireless signal and solid line is LAN):

Any info will help! Thanks in advance!
@Brandon, I have a ps3 lol but I’m home for the summer and my brother has the 360
@Joe Macoosa, As far as getting to the menu you are reffering to, I know how to get there. The wbr-2310 can in fact be used as an access point.
I’ve gone to 192.168.0.1 (my routers ip – the one I am using as an access point) and set the SSID, password, channel to the same as my wireless router. I’ve updated to the latest firmware (1.05 for the d-link) and I Think eveything should be good to go.But when I plug it into the xbox, and go to network connections via the xbox, it asks for the PPOE information – I don’t really know what that is. I’ve put in the SSID and everything, but still not working.
i am trying to connect an Epson CX4800 printer from my parents computer to mine. The comps are connected via a wired ethernet network.
i set up up the printer to be shared by other users. when i when to install it on my comp, i when to the "add printer" in the control panel, i did a Browse for printers and typed in the name "EpsonCX4800" (the name i gave to the shared printer) but it isnt showing up. under the box that says Shared printers, it reads "microsoft windows network" but no printers. when i try to continue, i get a "You need to specify a valid network printer name" message. i dont know what to do now. ice done everything i can to my knowledge.
how do i get it to recognize?
i havent checked the computer names yet, but they should be the same. i can share and access files between both computers.
I’m getting broadband internet and I don’t know if the jack at the back of my computer will connect to a cable modem. I know my desktop computer (Compaq Evo D310) contains an "Integrated Intel PRO/100 Network Connection." In the back of the computer there is what looks like a phone jack, and I know the computer definately does not have a dialup type modem installed. Is this the "network connection" jack for an ethernet connection to a cable modem?
Just purchased an emachines EL1352G-41W and had to change the operating system back to Windows XP. The network card needs different drivers. I called emachines and they said that it was called a "gigabit ethernet card" but that’s all the info they had. We downloaded drivers but they were not working. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
It is integrated but XP is not even finding the network card.
Also, it is not listed on the emachines website.
I have Linux Ubuntu installed on my PS3. I want to set it up so another device can connect to the PS3′s ethernet port and share the PS3′s wireless connection to connect to my wireless router. My router uses DHCP. "You can’t." is an unacceptable answer. I’m very close to making this work, I just need some more guidance. Firestarter can’t successfully bridge the connections.
Advice on how to connect my PS3 to the wireless network doesn’t help; I’ve already done that. What I need to know is how to SHARE that connection via the PS3′s ethernet connection.
When my laptop is hooked directly, the internet works. When I use it wireless, I have a strong connection, but get the "no internet access" icon in the system tray. The iPod Touch works wireless off the modem/router. My laptop previously worked fine wireless for months, but now it doesn’t.
My friend asked their neighbours to use their internet connection for a while, but eventhough she now has gotten internet service, her computer still keeps getting connected to that neighbour wireless. The person (neighbour) who has wireless connection, is a "Wireless Communication" engineer and they have 2 devices (like 2 modems) for their internet.
I wonder if the neighbour can easily see if my friend still gets connected to their wireless internet. If so how?
I have a wireless network in my house, with two printers and an external hard drive hooked up to a desktop computer in my living room. I can get to all my files, music, and stuff on the desktop computer from my laptops when I’m in the network IF the desktop computer is on, which is great; but I’d like to be able to access my stuff without always having to leave it on. So is there some kind of wireless adapter or something that I can plug in my wireless hard drive and 2 printers (all USB) into that will let me access them from my laptop even if my desktop is not on?
I’ve got a wireless router with ethernet ports.
Is there any way to make this work with my existing hard drive? I’d rather not buy another one, that has "NAS"
Let’s say that I have 2 computers, both desktops, and both in far separate rooms. I can’t reach both of them through Ethernet wires from my router, and I just did some research and found out that a "Wireless Ethernet Bridge" seems like a good idea.
My question is, what does this wireless bridge do exactly, and if I’m thinking right, the computers will have a sort of wireless plug from the back of the computer.
Last thing, is the ‘wireless plug’ into the back of the computer USB or does it go into the Ethernet port?
Thanks in advance.
I already have a modem that is connected to a router. This router feeds off 2 long wires to 2 different computers, I just want an easier way for them to have internet without all the hassle of wires everywhere.
