Okay, I am just about ready to go to Radio Shack and for $20 and change, buy a USB wi fi adaptor. I know it comes with a cd rom thing
I have two drives in my old computer. The lightscribe dvd drive does not work. The cd rom drive works fine. I tested it the other day. I just want to make sure that the cd thing that comes with the wi fi usb adaptor, well that it goes in the cd drive and not the other non-working one. As soon as someone writes Melody go and get the wi fi adaptor and stick the cd in the cd rom thing, then off I will go. I contacted the girl upstairs and told her that if she sees someone using her router, that it will be me, that I'm just spreading my wi fi wings and I wanted to run it by her (before I buy my own router). She laughed and said "sure, no problem" So I just might be doing wi fi this week. Wouldn't that be cool?? lol Melody P.S. Here's another of my stupid questions. When I do eventually buy a router, does the router have to be configured to work with the modem it's attached to? Let's say for example, that I buy a router and I hook it up. (I assume this has a cd too?) So do I set up the router to work on my new computer, and THEN I go into the other room and configure the wi fi thing? Did I get this right? And I have another stupid question. On my old computer (in the other room), like I indicated before, I have two drives. A dvd drive and a cd rom drive. On my NEW computer, there is only one drive. It's a SuperMulti DVD burner. I assume this also plays cd's??? Just checking. And thanks. Melody
