Hurdy Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 Is it possible to have a third PC accessing my wired network via a wireless connection?I have two PCs downstairs connected via a wired router and want to have a third upstairs but don't want to have cables going through the ceiling.Can I use some kind of blue tooth technology to achieve this or is it a pipe-dream?

expertec Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 I think if you get a Wireless Access Point, plug this into your router, and get a wireless card for the pc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spikeychris Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 Bluetooth is exactly what you want just shove the transceiver into a USB slot on the machine you want to share and follow the instructions.Make sure you install the drivers before you plug in the transceiver, you will have to lock the connection down when it finds the device.I've had mixed results with BT, problems being interference with electrical devices but all in all it works well.
