DWL-G120's in Ad-Hoc setup
increase it? Thanks, Rob On Fri, 11 Mar 2005 03:35:47 GMT, "MrSmiley" <n***@noyb.com> wrote: - Do you have it plugged into a USB 2.0 port?

I've read D-Links FAQs about max speed. Both are
plugged into USB 2.0 ports on different computers. I'm a little confused - this installation has a wireless router, but we aren't using it to connect the two computers in question (Accounting - owner doesn't want them on the internet). The wireless router works great on a print server and a few computers, that's not a problem (using a diff SSID and channel). My confusion is how to add a WAP to speed up the communication between the two accounting machines. Can I just set up another router with NO wan connection and change the DWL-G120s to infrastructure? That would only use the second router for DHCP?

give internet access to your computers you want not to have it. Besides using a different SSID, also use a different IP range and a different subnet for the second router. You will also want to change the broadcasting channel and default IP address of the second router, just to avoid any conflicts that could popup. Robert...

If
you dont want the 2 to be visible then use a firewall program on the 2 computers and set it up to only alow the 2 IPs you want to connect to each other. Robert...
