How do i set up a local area connection on my computer?
Steps First what you need to do is if you’re going to have internet for your LAN you need to set up your modem. (Optional) Now what you need to do is if you’re adding internet is hook up your router to your modem by taking the ethernet cable from the modem and placing the other end into the routers WAN slot. Make sure that everything is hooked up including power and all. (Only for Internet) Now steps 3-4 are going to be for wired connections. Steps 5-##### are for Wireless… Ok now what you need to do is plug in your eathernet cable into any of the ports on the back of your ROUTER. Your computer or xbox (360) will automaticly detect the internet connection if it has Plug and Play tech. If not go to start, My Computer, My Network Places, Veiw Network Connections, And enable Local Network Connection. Ok for wireless this can vary. For xbox 360 you need to go to network connections and manually select the network you want to connect to. For PC use step 4 and enable any wireless setting.
