I've 2 computers and I need to figure out how to get my upstairs computer which is running WINDOWS 2000 to work with my downstairs computer that is running WINDOWS XP. VERIZON supplied me with a WESTELL VERSALINK MODEL 327W ROUTER/MODEM COMBO but i've no idea how to access the ROUTER part of it. I also have a LINKSYS WIRELESS G BROADBAND ROUTER with a 4-POINT SWITCH MODEL WRT45G. On my downstairs computer(the XP one) I have A WIRELESS-G PCI ADAPTER with SPEEDBOOSTER I have the hardware for the most part but I DON'T have any of the INSTALLATION DISKS. Please someone help me set up my wireless network.

You can only use 1 router on the connection. You must read the manual for whichever you are going to use, connect it by cable to a lan port and use the web interface configuration. Then set up the wireless. Any wireless card you have must have it's drivers installed before it will work.

You don't need any installation disks. To configure your router, connect it to your computer using a network cable -- then type in http://192.168.1.1
