A. Try purchasing a wireless bridge/repeater and place it between you and the wireless access point. Check the Source link for more info.
How do I set up a wireless internet connection in Mandriva Linux 2006 with a Linksys wusb54g v4 reciever?
Q. I just recently installed Mandriva Linux and I dont know to much about Linux. I have a Wireless-G broadband router with a wusb54g v4 network adapter connected to the computer with Linux. I cant figure out which driver to use or how to put my own driver in. I downloaded NDisWrapper to install a Windows driver and I burned it to a CD to put in my Linux computer. But i cant even figure out how to view what is on the CD. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
A. Ahhh Ndiswrapper - It took me almost a month to figure out how to use that when I first delved into the world of Linux.
Okay, there's no point me regurgitating was is readily available on the net - there are hundreds of tutorials on setting up Ndiswrapper within Linux.
This guide is a good one: http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/Networking/NdisWrapper_The_Ultimate_Guide/
Your best bet is, if you can, plug your computer into a LAN port while you set up ndiswrapper so you can still access the net and use repositories because I really don't recommend trying to install ndiswrapper by hand when you've only just started using Linux. To install it in Mandrive while you're on the net, you want to type "urpmi wireless-tools" into the terminal and hit y at any questions. But obviously this will only work if you've got a LAN cable plugged in. Good luck, if you get really stuck, may I recommend installing Ubuntu linux instead. People may argue with me over this, but you'll find the Ubuntu guide/wiki is full of ace tutorials to get everything set up nice and easily.

Setting up a wireless home network help?
Q. I want to set up a small home network with 3 desktop PC's so that all 3 can access the internet and nobody punches anyone else for computer time. All I care about is access to the internet at good speeds for all 3 comps.
PC 1 is brand new and pretty darn sweet - Vista Home Premium
PC 2 is a 3 year old Dell Dimension 3000 - XP
PC 3 is some kind of 5 year old EMachines - XP
Everything I know about networking I've discovered in the last 2 days researching online but I don't know if I'm missing something.
I'm getting a Linksys WRT54GS router and two Linksys WUSB54G USB adaptors. Is it as easy as plugging in the two adaptors in PC 2 and 3 while attaching the router to PC 1 and going through the various install and prompts?
Is there something else that I'm going to need to buy to hook everything up or just the router and adaptors?
Will older computers work with this?
Is it ok with one of the comps running Vista with the other two running XP?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
You guys are great!
Thanks a ton.
