Recently, my cable company installed my internet. I shared how happy I was when it was finally working in my previous post. Having multiple devices at home that needs internet to fully function would require a regular wireless router. So, I got one for myself few days back, I never waited for the next day, I set it up myself. Is pretty easy though, all you need to do is follow the setup guide.

I bought a TP-Link Wireless Router.

That night, I discovered that Lappie’s my laptop ODD (Optical Disk Drive) was no longer working and I needed that to setup the wireless router. But then I realize I had internet, I can download, I was feeling very technical. I wasn’t really sure they have a support site but I was hoping. This was actually my first TP-Link device, luckily they have. You can find them here. I downloaded the easy setup utility, connected cables (cable modem to wireless router to computer) followed the setup utility and viola! Is all ready. Tested my wireless network using Navi my LG phone, it was a success and cables were all over. Yikes!

When it was finally working, had to setup everything like how I wanted it to be, not totally going wireless but less visible cables.

• Xbox directly connected to the wireless router;
• while Lappie and Navi have wireless connection.

Xbox connects perfectly to the internet. Was streaming criminal minds while checking FB messages with Navi while Lappie was sitting pretty on the white table at the side, not seen though.

That’s it for me today. If I learn anything new as I go on with using these technology at home, I will sure share them to you.
