How do I connect my second PC or Laptop to main PC with router?

I recently bought a new Desktop PC and had 2 laptops and now have an older Desktop PC!
I also bought a WRT150 Wireless-N router to connect to the enternet with both my PC and laptops , to play games , share pictures betwin my PC with friends and family.Previously I lived in place where no one know what does network word mean...so I'm new to enthernet and network and I have a question! Once I installed the software from instalation CD and succesfuly connected to the enternet trough the router how do I connect my other Desktop PC and Laptops to the router?Do I need to install that software to my other computers? How do I check if I need addition devices? Can any one write a step by step instruction for me or give me a link to the page if it was wroten already?

Ok so the new desktop which is wired has Vista.  You have 2 laptops with what OS?  Are they wired or wireless?  The older PC has what OS and what network card (wired or wireless)?
As you know Vista is a new operating system and is not compatible with some routers yet so I would have another PC with Windows XP (with service pack 2) wired to your router.  Now the information on the network card that is needed is what type it it?  Wired or wireless which is easy to tell by if it needs to be plugged in or not.  Most wireless network cards come with a driver and software so that is the software I am referring to.
When setting your wireless security up some  older operating systems can not use WPA  or WPA2 so they have to use WEP which is not that good bet better then nothing at all.  The SSID has to be something other then linksys so you can identify your wireless network.  So when you get all this information also post your  router model/version and how you have it configured as far as the SSID and DHCP range, internet connection type (DSL or Cable) ,  and security.  Don't worry you system will still be secure as long as you DO NOT leave your routers password as admin and do not tell anyone your routers password for any reason.

  • How do I connect a second LaCie drive to my iMac 24"

    Hi, Im new at this and would like to know how do I connect my second 1TB LaCie drive to my 24" iMac. Im not sure if I need to connect it directly to my current LaCie drive since my iMac does not have a second firewire 800 port. Also, should I disconnect the old one to format the new one before?

    Oh..Ok, but to format the new one do I need to disconnect the old one and then connect the new one to the iMac before doing the daisy chain? Also, can Time Machine run both at the same time? Right now I have the Time Machine backing up my entire computer on the old LaCie, I want to use the new one to place my iPhoto library and all of my RAW images from my photography clients so I can free up space in my iMac.

  • How do i connect my iMac to my tv to see movies with wire

    how do i connect my iMac to my tv to see movies with wire

    Hey rodskc10,
    Thanks for the question! Based on the iMac model and TV you have, you’ll need to pick up a compatible cable. There are a few options that can be found on the Apple Online Store:
    Mac Cables - Computer Audio & Video Adapters, Network Cables & More - Apple Store (U.S.)
    http://store.apple.com/us/mac/mac-accessories/cables#!
    For example, if you have the latest iMac and an HDTV, a mini DisplayPort to HDMI cable should do the job (you’ll connect this to the Thunderbolt port, which is backwards compatible with mini DisplayPort).
    For additional information, see this article:

    How do I add a second email address in my email account with Shaw cable. It is already set up with Shaw but how do I add it to my incoming email

    If you are using Apple's Mail setup is: Mail>Preferences>Accounts tab, click the + sign to add an account. You'll need the email account name and password to input on the first screen. Mail should then attempt auto-setup but if it can't do it you'll need to manually add the mail server info, etc.

  • How to secure connection in sql server 2008? my main problem is which certificate should i add in mmc

    i'm recently working on hardening of sql server 2008. now i face with a problem. my problem is  how to secure connection in sql server 2008?  my main problem is which certificate should i add in mmc? what are these certificates about?and guide
    me in choosing the appropriate certificate.
    and how should i know that the connection in sql server is secured?
    plz guide me from the beginning cause i'm rookie in this subject.
    thanks in advance.

    Hi sqlfan,
    Question 1: my problem is how to secure connection in sql server 2008?
    Microsoft SQL Server can use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to encrypt data that is transmitted across a network between an instance of SQL Server and a client application. For more information about Encrypting Connections to SQL Server, please refer to the following
    article:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms189067(v=sql.105).aspx
    Question 2: my main problem is which certificate should i add in mmc? what are these certificates about?and guide me in choosing the appropriate certificate.
    To install a certificate in the Windows certificate store of the server computer, you will need to purchase/provision a certificate from a certificate authority first. So please go to a certificate authority to choose the appropriate certificate.
    For SQL Server to load a SSL certificate, the certificate must meet the following conditions:
    The certificate must be in either the local computer certificate store or the current user certificate store.
    The current system time must be after the Valid from property of the certificate and before the Valid to property of the certificate.
    The certificate must be meant for server authentication. This requires the Enhanced Key Usage property of the certificate to specify Server Authentication (1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.1).
    The certificate must be created by using the KeySpec option of AT_KEYEXCHANGE. Usually, the certificate's key usage property (KEY_USAGE) will also include key encipherment (CERT_KEY_ENCIPHERMENT_KEY_USAGE).
    The Subject property of the certificate must indicate that the common name (CN) is the same as the host name or fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the server computer. If SQL Server is running on a failover cluster, the common name must match the host
    name or FQDN of the virtual server and the certificates must be provisioned on all nodes in the failover cluster.
    Question 3: how should i know that the connection in sql server is secured?
    If the certificate is configured to be used, and the value of the ForceEncryption option is set to Yes, all data transmitted across a network between SQL Server and the client application will be encrypted using the certificate. For more detail about this,
    please refer to Configuring SSL for SQL Server in the following article:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms189067(v=sql.105).aspx
    If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.

  • How do I connect and detect a high frquency pulse (0-3500hz) with a variable pulse voltage (0v low,5-10v high), on a SC-2345 connected to a PCI-6224?

    How do I connect and detect a high frquency pulse (0-3500hz) with a variable pulse voltage (0v low,5-10v high),  on a SC-2345 connected to a PCI-6224?  Labview doesn't generate a waveform if I try to graph the signal, and my analog input doesn'y recognize that the signal is even pulsing, only that it has a voltage.  Some advice would be much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    Garrett

    Hi Garrett,
    It sounds like you want to do Frequency Measurements of a signal that is somewhat digital.
    There are two ways you can really do this:
    Wire your signal to the counter input and use the Digital Frequency examples (Help > Find Examples > Browse > Hardware Input and Output > DAQmx > Counter Measurements > Digital Frequency)
    Continue taking analog measurements and use some sort of logic to determine where you are getting rising and falling edges.
    I would recommend doing method #1, but you must determine which one is the best for your system.
    If you want to connect to the counter pins then you will find the
    terminals located on the side of your SC-2345.  If you don't need
    to condition your signals then simply wire everything into the proper
    pins for your counter (below).

  • How do you connect a second monitor to a MacBook Pro

    i am wanting to connect a second monitor to my MAC so i can have 2 of my pages showing at the same time. how do i do that?

    I am pretty sure the MacBook and MacBook Pro only supports ONE external monitor of any description, even though the cabling will support two.
    The short story, that Courcoul has alluded to but not stated, is this:
    All you need is an Adapter. All the software to do elegant multiple display work is already in place in your Mac, and will be activated automatically the moment you plug it in. Nothing to Install, no settings to change. Just plug in the display.
    The default mode is Extended Desktop, where the one-monitor desktop is enhanced by having the area of the second display appended to its right side (or any other side you specify). The mouse moves freely from one display to the other, and can drag windows with it, which can be resized on the other display. You can even drop things so that half is on each display, and they will scroll and update "the right way".

  • Internet connection is fine, but my laptop no longer recognizes the router (WRT54G)

    I discovered this problem while trying to add a wired PC to my router. Even though I connected, disconnected, and reconnected my laptop multiple times, it was unable to recognize the router (WRT54G). This has not always been a problem, since I set up the initial wireless connection and later an Xbox Live connection, but that was over six months ago. There's no obvious physical damage to the router or my laptop, neither has been dropped recently or anything like that.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Well, 2 quick things. Try a cable from one of the working systems on the laptop. Also check your local area network connection (Start Menu, Connect to, -> Local area network, right click, properties, scroll down to "TCP/IP") and make sure it is set to "Obtain IP Address automatically, and "Obtain DNS Automatically". I have had nothing but trouble with the setup CD's.
