[QUOTE="supermac, post: 474738, member: 192416"] @mrgoodall: You need dragontail which connects to your TD scsi port. Then a wireless adapter which connects to your dragontail. I have used an Asus WL-167G but Hisat can give you a list of supported adapters. Then you need to set up the wireless connection in the Network Setup section of your TD's menu system. I used a fixed ip address for the adapter which was different to the TD's assigned ip address. You don't need to forward any ports since you are behind your router with your TD and laptop. You probably don't even need to forward any ports for internet updates of keys etc since these are initiated by your TD and routers allow anything like that by default. If its a router problem you have I have used the Netgear DG834G with no problem. BUT wifi is inherently flaky as you are discovering so I used Netgear Powerline bridges (XE102 or 104) which transmit data around your power cables so then you only need to plug your laptop into one of those. A much better solution! Hope this helps supermac [/QUOTE]
