How do i connect a wired pc, and wireless nb to same network?

is it possible to connect my desktop to a network with a wireless notebook without adding a wireless card to the desktop? I have a wrt54g wireless router.

On the back of the router you should have 4 ethernet output ports.  If your desktop has a ethernet adapter all you need is a ethernet cable.  This BTW is the prefered configuration as you will always have communication with the router even if there are wireless problems.

  • How to permanently connect to a minimal without being on the same network?

    I'm trying to connect my mini-mac to my mac book pro permanently so that they will appear in each other's finders even when they are not on the same network. I've done it before but I can't remember how I did it. Help?

    Hello,
    If you can download the driver on a computer that does have access to the internet you can transfer the file to the other computer using a USB Drive.

  • How do I connect both a Mac and PC to Apple TV Home Sharing?

    Goal
    - I am trying to share both my PC and Mac through my Apple TV2 on the "Computers" home sharing menu.
    - These are 2 seperate iTunes accounts as they are 2 different owners of the PC and Macbook.
    - However, home sharing only allows me to have one at a time, can I not have 2 computers connected?
      (The menu is in fact plural and says "Computers" not "Computer")
    Attempt
    -I turn on home sharing on my PC with my PC iTunes account, it then shows up on the "Computers" list as PC
    -I turn on home sharing on my Mac with my Mac iTunes account, it then shows up on the "Computers" list as Mac, but it deletes the PC share
    Troubleshoot
    -So I started from scatch and connected the PC share with my PC itunes account, it shows up,
    -Then I connect the Mac home sharing with the same iTunes login as my PC, but it also erases my PC from the "Computers" list and just displays the Mac.
    Question
    -How do I connect both a Mac and PC to Apple TV Home Sharing?
    -I want them both to show up in the "Computers" list.
    -So the final result will look like this on my Apple TV menu:
    Computers
    -PC
    -Mac
    whew... I'm out of breath... I hope there is an Apple Genius out there that can help.
    Thanks!

    After retrying the home share with the SAME ITUNES ACCOUNT ON HOME SHARING I finally got it to work.

  • Wired PC and Wireless Laptops

    We just got a wireless router for the cable internet we have for a wired desktop. Our laptops are picking up the internet just fine. But how in the world do you set up a network with a wired desktop and the two laptops? We were told we could access files and printers from the desktop using the laptops but no one will expand on how to do that. Do you have to actually hardwire the laptops to the router or something in order to create a network between the wired desktop and wireless laptops? The guys at the computer store were standing there offering to charge us $200 to solve the problem. Can someone please help?

    The desktop does have an ethernet port and is currently connected to the internet via that port. However, every time I try to connect the desktop to another computer by setting up a new connection, it doesn't give me the option of using the router as the hub to connect all my computers together. The microsoft website talks mainly about wiring all the comps directly to the computer but I'm trying to be able to access the desktop wirelessly from the laptop. the room the desktop is in is way way too hot to work in comfortably, so we were hoping to access it from an air conditioned room via the laptop. I'm just at a loss.

    Your question makes no sense. You "connect" an iOS device to iTunes on your computer via WiFi or by using the supplied cable.

  • Can psc2510 work connected and wireless at the same time?

    My PSC2510 all-in-one is connected to my desktop the old-fashioned way.  Can I get my laptop to print wirelessly from the same printer?

    I'm pretty sure that USB and wireless connections can work at the same time on this printer. Just make sure the same PC is not connected by both USB and wireless. The software will get "confused" as to which way to communicate with the printer.

    How do I connect my iPad to my wireless printer?

    Your iPad should be able to print directly to your printer if it is an AirPrint compatible model.
    Check this Apple support document to see if your printer is compatible.

  • How do i have CC on home and work computer with same account?

    How do i have CC on home and work computer with same account?

    Hi Markofm,
    You may install software on up to two computers. These two computers can be Windows, Mac OS, or one each.
    If you install on a third computer, it will request you to De-activate on the other two computers.  You can then reactivate one of the previous two computers, and use Creative Cloud apps on it.
    If you regularly need to use the Creative Cloud on more than two computers then it would be best to purchase an additional subscription.  This is the same licensing between which we have for our perpetual product.  An advantage though for Creative Cloud over the perpetual product is that you can install on Mac and Windows with the same subscription!
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Airport extreme wired AND wireless at the same time?

    Very sorry for this newbie question. Can i have my iMac wired to my computer with ethernet and wireless at the same time?
    If so, what ports to i plug what into?
    My guess is modem-wan port on extreme and a cable going wired from the ethernet port on the extreme to the iMac?
    Do i need to do any configuring?
    Thanks!

    The operatibe word here is EXPRESS
    To the best of my knowledge the ethernet port on the express is for ethernet IN not out
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/AirPortExpressSetupGuide.pdf The pertinent diagrams are like page 20 - 25
    Now you can actually do what you are talking about with an extreme.. an extreme can, in theorey operate as an remote/relay taking incoming signal giving you one - four out bound ethernet ports
    that info can be found in the manual on setting up a WDS
    the only thing to remember is .. the weakest leg controls.. if your wireless signal to the relay is poor. any thing using the relay for access will also be poor
    I have found out the hard way about that
    hey you can get good price on bulk cat 5

  • C6180 - USB and Wireless on the same computer

    I have a C6180 and have no problem installing it as a USB printer OR via a wireless connection. Is there a way to have both, USB and wireless, on the same computer at the same time using 2 different printer setups? Windows XP Pro SP3 and Mac OsX 10.5.4

    It can get confusing if you have USB and network connections from one computer to the same printer. On the other hand, you shouldn't have any issues to have one computer connected via USB and another connected wirelessly to the same printer.

  • Can I use HP Pro 8600 with usb and wireless at the same time

    Can I use HP Pro 8600 with usb and wireless at the same time?  Sometimes I cannot get the wireless to work, it seems to be my laptop.  It would be nice if I could use the usb, but it doesn't work.  What should / can I do, if anything?
    Sam

    Hi,
    Same physical printer but when connecting to SAME computer using both USB and wireless it becomes two (logical) printers. Probably your default prnter is the wireless one, you have to select the right printer before print .
