Use a dongle to connect to a network Insert the dongle into one of the USB ports. Wait for the dongle to start up, then connect to the network.
It is actually a wireless hotspot that connects similar to a USB modem dongle. You will be better off just buying a device designed to be a wifi repeater it is much more likely to be compatible with your router. It may not display this or other websites correctly.

How to run a USB wireless adapter and a router together? Thread starter RustyZip Start date Apr 1, Status Not open for further replies. Im tearing my hair out - any help you can give would be much appreciated.. Here's the setup:- I have a computer situated upstairs in a bedroom that has a Router attached no broadband connected which is then connected to a Linn Digital Streamer, Linn Pre-Amplifer and a networked attached storage device, so that they can all talk together All was working fine, until i installed broadband downstairs, and i am now using a USB wireless adapter plugged into the computer upstairs to access the internet etc It seems now i can only use the USB wireless adapter OR the router connections, by disabling the other connection.
So how do i get the both working together?? Also when it all works, will the router and the 3 items be able to access the internet through the USB adapter?? Someway to plug broadband wirelessly into the back of the router maybe?? Thanks for any help RustyZip P. Click to expand How did you connect the usb adapter? Hi Tipstir.. Installed software then plugged it in..
Couldnt get it to work via its own software, so im using Windows XP's own wireless connection software In "Network Connections" the wireless network connection and router are listed under the LAN or High Speed Internet Type, and when broadband is working but not the router an "Internet Gateway" is showing as connected. You are using SP3 correct? Do not use Windows Wireless Connection. Disable that feature is services.
Use the tool that comes with the USB adapter to mange the wireless. If that still doesn't work then their is an issue with the device itself, or it's driver on the USB controller drivers on your system is corrupted. To fix that issue you need to go into the device manager and uninstall the USB drivers. Upon a reboot Windows will rebuild the USB drivers. Here are some methods that can be used to make any USB device wireless and help you share them over any distance.
When you are looking for how to make USB wireless connections, a software solution may be your best choice. USB Network Gate from Electronic Team is a software solution that lets you turn any USB device into a wireless peripheral that is accessible by any computer attached to your network. It removes the need for physical connectivity to USB devices, allowing them to be shared with users across the globe.
You can also share devices with multiple users at the same time without the hassle or expense of extra cables or moving equipment. You need an open USB port with which to connect the Bluetooth adapter. This device enables the computer to communicate with other Bluetooth-compatible machines and peripherals.
It also makes it possible to share a USB device between two computers. Distance limitations and the requirement of available USB ports on the machines are potential drawbacks to this method. The wireless USB hub converts the transmission of its connected USB devices to wireless signals that are made available to the network. It can be useful for sharing your peripheral devices but also has issues that make it a less attractive option than USB over Network software. One limitation is that the hub needs to be located in close proximity to a power source.
It also needs to be within range of your wireless router and demands some configuration before it can be implemented. Finally, you are constrained by the number of ports supported by the hub. Sharing numerous devices will, therefore, require the use of multiple hubs.
