[access-uk] Re: internet conection

Hi Marie,

Did you get any answers to your question?

  The answer to your question is yes you can. Enable the wireless connection on 
your laptop when you're connecting wirelessly and turn it off and wire your 
laptop to your rooter when you are using your laptop indoors.

  You can have as many connections as you like configured on your computer. You 
choose what connection to use at the time from Control Panel, Network 
Connections. E.G. I have about six connections configured on my laptop, some 
are wireless connections, some are dial up and one connection to connect 
through my mobile phone. However, in your case, and not to confuse yourself, I 
reckon the easiest way would be to follow my first suggestion; turn on wireless 
when outdoors and switch it off when indoors.

  Hope I didn't confuse you more :)

  Cheers,
  Amro

  Hi, Perhaps I didn't express myself clearly. What I want to do is to have 2 
separate connections on my laptop. A wired one for when I use it near my router 
and a wireless one when I want to use it outside 
     in the sunshine or in a comfortable chair in the lounge.
    My question was, Can 2 connections co-exist on the same machine happily.
    Thanks to all techies for any info.
    Cheers now,

    Hi Marie.

    It's perfectly feasible to have a number of desktops and laptops all 
connected and surfing the web simultaneously but it really depends on whether 
the deal with your ISP permits it.

    We're using Sky at present and have a desktop and 3 laptops all wirelessly 
connected and able to use the internet simultaneously.  I have a further works 
laptop that's connected by an ethernet cable to the router.

    We had a similar deal with BT but I know some packages only allow one 
computer to be connected at a time.

    Regards.

      To the more technically minded among you, Is it possible to have two 
internet connections on a PC, I.e a wireless one and a wired one from the same 
ISP?
      I want to use my laptop wirelessly but would like to have a hard wire 
connection in case it's needed. Of course I will not use the 2 at the same time.
      If it is, can someone tell me how it is done?
      Any help gratefully received.
      Cheers now,
      Marie
