Well its strange how life takes us. I can think of a few occasions, when I never thought I'd do something -- and then guess what? I ended up doing that thing!

Well Congratulations to you!!!
I truly hope they pay you well for it cause they sure are expensive. I paid $159.00 to have them do the wireless network to the three computers while I was living with my daughter!
All they did was open the CPU, fit in the cards in the Mother boards and type in the codes for the Linksys cards!!
It took them less than 15 mins!!!!!

Actually you couldn't! The air ticket from yr place to mine and back would be approximately $329.76 before tax and fees! So you WOULD be more expensive!

Oh and if you would have been here to do the networking, I would not have had the heart to take advantage of your friendship!

So what you're saying is that you know how to install those networking drives and code them to work properly? That's pretty good if you ask me, because I don't know a thing about networking computers, even though my laptop is wirelessly networked to my parents' PC.

lol, I only know about it because I had to learn it myself. My stepdad is great with computers and stuff, but while I'm at my dad's house, I have to do everything because my dad's not exactly a computer genius and my sister is... well, my sister, so I had to set up my laptop and my sister's laptop, as well as my dad's computer, and fix any errors that came up.

OK, Guys and gals, I have only one window opened so I won't make a mistake on this one!

The topic is to comment on Pete's new job at Best Buy. If the same on not related to this, then you're OFF TOPIC.

Kindly take the conversation to the general Chat Section! Please??? Thank Yee Very Much!!!

Since Pete has shared with us, and we with him, all is left to wish him to do well, sell a lot of stuff and not force feed customers the maintenance contract. It's a waste of time and money!

*Locked*

lol, as for networking, networkig is not simple. if it was simple we wouldn't have 80% of all networking equipment sent back to our store or returned. I myself more exspierenced then you im sure still sometimes run into a variety of issues when hooking up new routers to new ISP services because unless its comcast their are some different hoops to jump through with a whole variety of errors not to mention sometimes the hardware is bad.

Then you are telling me that once I get Sabrina's new PC I have to buy the rourter, the cards and pay the $159.00 all over again. And I don't have Comcast here, I have SBC!!!
Can I not just use the equipment and cards I already have?

I'm not sure, but don't you have to enter the code to connect up the router in the command Prompt?

are you talking about a wirelss WAP code(the code it asks you to enter the first time you try to connect to the internet with that computer...)??? if you have SBC it is on the bottom of your router... unless you changed it in your settings, in which case i could help you through PM...
stupid sbc messed mine up so i had to go in and redo it all myself... so i can get around that stupid gateway pretty well...

i hooked mine up and then did my aunts for her... shoulda charged for it... :D :D :D jk

IDK, that wireless network was first set up while I was living with my oldest daughter. Since I was in the basement, we set up the router on her computer (as the main one) and then the other two computers.

But I was referring to Sabrina's laptop! I don't have a clue as to how am I suppose to add her to my internet.

Somehow I think I'd be picking up my router at my daughter's house pretty soon!
