I need help to install the Microsoft wireless router MN-
700 and the two PC adater card MN-720 that I just
purchased.

Internet is connected to DSL from home. I was able to get
one PC working by installing the router and the PC adapter
card. It works wonderfully!

However, this is the problem. I tried to share the same
router by adding another PC with a new PC adapter card.
The way I did this is by installing the same router CD and
a new PC adapter card on the second PC - just like the way
I installed the first one.

After I did that both PC's are not working. I must have
done something wrong. I am wondering if I have confused
the DSL provider double install the router CD on the
second PC. Please advise.

Alan

Everything should be fine with the ISP.

Reinstall the CD on both PCs. Make sure you use the same
SSID, workgroup name, and WEP key. Once you install the
first PC save the install data into a floppy and use the
floppy to install the second PC (this will help setting
WEP key, etc.)
