Computer Networking - February 2007

I am trying to get free internet service for my grandson who lives near wi-fi hotspots..I gave him a computer with wi-fi capabilities but he cannot get online as it says it is searching. There are free hotspots at 2 loacations near him. Would a booster antenna help? Any help greatly appreciated..

i have a laptop. my brother has a computer which connected to the internet with broadband. i have the Belkin 802.11g Wireless Notebook Network Card, which i want to install on my laptop.

i inserted the cd in the laptop cd drive and installed the Belkin software. i also inserted the network card in the laptop slot when requested to do so.

when i click on the internet explorer icon and type in a http address, i get the page stating "page currently unavaiable"?

what do i have to do in order to get internet access on my laptop through my brothers computer? he already has a router.

thanks

How come when you have a 2mb connection do you only ever download at most 250! and with an 8mb connection most I've seen is 600kb/sec. Why wont it do 2mb or 8mb respectively!

Also will I get a better speed through an ethernet cable than I would through a wireless network (obviously more reliable as no chance of dropouts through signal problems!)

Ive hooked up 2 computers to a 8 port switch hub, and connected the switch hub to my cable modem, Now ive been using the internet on both, They both have windows xp home. Im trying to figure out how I can make my connection to both computers faster, My lag has increased alot on my real good com, and sucks on my 2.7 g intregrated com. Im tying to play games on both, and yes the intregrated vid can handle the game. HOW to make my connection faster is my question. Thanks to all who try to help!

should i use the stock router provided by verizon FiOS or a d-link DI 524 be just as good or better? Seems like I can't use the router and use Utorrent at the same time, and when i was using the D-Link with the DSL line It was fine. So should i switch back?
