Re: Making a Router WIFI
The Telsey CPVA500 manual is not available online without registration -- forget that. But it looks like it has both a USB and an Ethernet connection for a PC. You are probably connected to it with a USB cable. The following should work, unless some weird configuration is required on the PC by your ISP: Get a wireless router and two short ethernet cables. Find out whether your computer needs to run special software to connect. It probably doesn't. If it does, write it all down before you make any change. Disconnect the computer from the Telsey box. Connect the WAN side of the router to the PC ethernet connector on the Telsey box. Connect your computer to an ethernet jack on the LAN side of the wireless router, and do the router setup that way. It is usually not a good idea to try to configure a wireless router through a wireless connection. Once wireless is set up, you can disconnect that cable and connect to the router wirelessly. |
