WiFi wireless internet and wifi router
Hi,
I have a wifi wireless internet provider , and I am trying to hook up two computers to share the wifi internet connection. My wifi internet is provided through an antenna outside my house with a hardwire ending in a rj45 jack which I plug into the lan connection on my laptop. It works perfectly.
I want to hook up a Linksys WRT54GS wireless router and two wireless pcmcia cards. So far I have had ZERO sucess. I have spent hours on the phone with Linksys, and the problem seems to be the WIFI Intenet hides the IP address etc, and auto detect cannot find it. It gets me just to the anntenna but not beyond. HOWEVER, my Skype connection and my Limewire connection sail right past this problem, and remain connected even though I cannot access the internet through the router. Has anyone had this problem and how can I find the IP address, mask, dns servers etc that I need to enter manually in Linksys router. Sadly, my WiFi isp provider is hopeless and does not resond to my requests for that info, either by e-mail or telephone. UGH Any ideas???? HELP..Please......................
