Thread: How to connect both Laptop and PC

Hello Everybody!

I'm using BSNL Dataone BB services under 500C+ plan with a type 4 modem model number: WA3002G4 which is connected to a single PC which has Win XPSP2 as OS.

How can I use the same internet connection to my laptop with Win Vista as OS. Should I buy anything else?

I think with my type4 modem, I can connect the net to laptop and use it wherever possible. Am i right?

Please explain me the procedure in connecting the internet for both laptop and PC at the same time.

your laptop will mostly have a wifi card built in.. so you dont need anything.. you might need to change to ppoe mode... so that both pcs can use the internet at the same time..WA3002-g1 (Type-II) ADSL MODEM MULTIUSER CONFIGURATION

hello superprash2003 and just4kix...first of all i must appreciate your detailed guides.....
I have a problem connecting my WA3002G4 which is connected to a single PC which has Win XPSP2 as OS.i was trying to configure my modem for wireless...it says connected on my laptop but i am not able to browse.....http://www.calcuttatelephones.com/da...08.html...this guide i think has different wordings than those given in my router settings window (it dont have anything like interface setup)...so please can you post a detailed tutorial how to connect to laptop and pc at a time .....Thank you

ok.. so i guess ou followed the guide and you are on ppoe mode now.. and your desktop works but your laptop doesnt.. in your laptop go to the command prompt(start->>run and type cmd) and type ipconfig and post output here.. a screenshot would help

ethernet adapter wireless network connection..
Ip adress. 192.168.1.3
subnet mask. 255.255.255.0
default gateway. 192.168.1.1..this is what i got after i did what you said..hope this helps to solve my problem....thanks a lot....

in your laptop in the command prompt type ping 192.168.1.1 and post output here.. also type ping google.com and post output here
