Re: How do I set up my Linksys Router for a home network?

It will only work with ADSL so it will be fine for the BT service. I think, not quite sure about this, that you still share the connection by plugging the phone line into the PC and then you run the internet connection sharing wizard. Will go look.....

You should be able to do it with Window's Internet Connection Sharing (ICS). You can find ICS info through the Help and Support Center.

For the physical network just connect the first PC via ethernet cable to a LAN port on the router and access the router via its IP address to configure the wireless side. There should be instructions with the router on how to do this.

Once you can get the 2 PCs to ping each other, use the Set up a Home or Small Office network wizard to set up the ICS.

If you run into any trouble, come back with description of what you've done, error messages, etc. Happy dial-up sharing.
