Wireless Network setup
![]() |
I currently have a wired LAN which works great with three PCs. I am using a Linksys BEFSR41 4 port DSL router which hooks to my DSL modem. My IP is Bellsouth/AT & T. I would like to switch to a Linksys Wireless router WRT54G. Does anyone know what settings I will need to use. I would like to get the wireless network in place prior to the arrival of my new laptop.
Will I be able to use basically the same settings I have on my current router with the exception of the Wireless config of the router?
Any help would be appreciated. I set up the BEFSR41 with very little problems though I'm new to this. I already have the Wireless router and want to begin working with setting it up as soon as possible.

On the ISP side of things it should be similar. I would use WAP for your wireless. The hacker kid tells me he can sniff WEP in a matter of minutes. You should have no problems. Make sure you set a secure password both for your router itself as well at the WAP key. Wouldn't hurt to change that every few weeks/months.
