If you have several laptops and computers at your disposal, then you will certainly want to combine them into a single local network. To create such a network, you can use both standard wired technologies and a wireless Wi-Fi network. If you need to connect both computers and laptops, then it is better to use the combined method. In this case, you need a Wi-Fi router or router.
It is necessary
- Wi-Fi router
- Wifi router
- network cables
Instructions
Step 1
Select a router or router. To solve the problem, you need to consider two parameters: the ability to create a wireless access point and a certain number of ports for cable connection.
Step 2
Open your router or router settings. In the case of a D-Link router, enter in the address bar of the browser https://192.168.0.1, and for ASUS routers - https://192.168.1.1. Open your local network or internet settings. Provide a fixed static IP address for your switchgear
Step 3
Open the Wireless Setup Wizard and create a wireless Wi-Fi access point. Allow the laptops connected to this access point to connect to the local network.
Step 4
Connect computers to the router with network cables using LAN ports. Open the network connection settings of any laptop or computer. Go to TCI / IP Internet Protocol Properties. Provide a static IP address for your PC. It should differ from the router's IP address by only the fourth number.
Step 5
Repeat the same operation for the rest of the PCs and laptops, replacing the last segment.
