I use wireless router at home because it's much more convenient. Now I have four laptops at home and therefore it's better to use the wireless router. At least I can use my laptop anywhere at home.

I haven't use wireless router and I like to use it when I will own a laptop someday. I am hoping to make money online as much that it can buy a laptop. I don't know much about the router thing but it would really be useful.

A wireless router isn't expensive today.

yes... i do.. because i live in my rent house. As a student, each member in my house has a laptop. so, it's gonna be easy to surf internet anywhere and anytime. i use Linksys. it quiet hard to do some settings.. D-Link is better. It's easy than Linksys.

That's great. If you share your internet with others, perhaps the internet cost will be lowerwink

of cos.. we share to pay the bills to light up the burden. And we satisfied for the telecommunication service, even sometimes lag and internet so slow. =)

Hi youless I’m rather curious and interested to know why you have so many laptops at home. You don’t tell me you use all the 4 laptops at the same time to surf net. Or there are other members in your family surf net as well.

I would use the wireless router to surf net if I use both the desktop and laptop at the same time. The USB modem has a single USB port only so it could serve a computer to access internet connection only. I have to use the wireless router when my son is back to home or my nephew visits me, for using the wireless router we then could use more than one computer at the meanwhile.

There is another advantage which I enjoy most when using the wonderful wireless router, yeah I could access network at any corner of my house. It’s really convenient for I’m not restricted anymore at just staying in a small confined place. My son has set a password for the sake of security to prevent outsiders to access and share the network using our wireless router.

happy posting and happy 2009!

My husband and I have two laptops. Then later I bought one small laptop for my mom and my son. It will be convenient to use since it's small. Although they spend less time on it. After some time, my dad said it would be difficult for my mom to use small laptop, then he bought one bigger for her. This is why there are four laptops at my home. I didn't mention that I have a desktop, toolol

Thanks for telling me this and to solve my puzzle finally.
Seems that your dad is the solely one in your family that doesn’t have any interest in using computer. However I appreciate him. He is a real generous and caring gentleman who is so considerate to his partner thumbup
Oh, my gosh! There is still another desktop eh! It seems like your sitting room is a mini café happy
Have a nice day.


myLot reputation of 99/100. lkbooi (9346)   ranked 12 out of 13,139 in internet  4 years ago

Thanks for giving me the best response youless. I still could imagine how nice the whole family of you having so much fun to surf net together with the computer respectively in the sitting room. Have a sweet time and bye...

Since there are many of us in the house, it was decided to have a wireless router. It makes sense because there are two desktops and up to 5 laptops during the holidays. I use only one desktop unless I am troubleshooting for the family. Since several neighbours have accessed the Internet without permission I have set up a firewall. I am not being mean. Whenever they were allowed to access the Internet they tend to hog the bandwidth, downloading many things including photos and videos. I use Aztech. I helped my friend to set up D-Link. In my opinion it is easier to set up using Aztech wireless router.

all the best,
ninja rosdimy

yup, I'm using wireless router at home. I bought it a year ago. Before I decide which brand should I buy I made some research from the internet. So I decide that I buy ZyXEL. So far I have no problem using my wireless router.

Because wireless can be access by anyone within the range of its signal I set a WEP and change the key from time to time.
