A simple question...i think
Hi,
I have a friend who has a USB Air Card/Modem (UDM-680). He want's me to set-up a wireless hotspot in his office so that anyone w/a laptop can connect.
He has a wireless router (ctr500 cradlepoint) with a usb port for the modem but I've messed with it for 3 days, about 19 hrs., and i still cannot get the thing to see the modem and dial out to the net.
It's a real nice router...if it worked. The site says that it supports the modem and carrier so it should be PnP but it is not. I'm gonna go over there in a bit and see about updating the modem and firmware, maybe but i'm getting sick of it, but I remember the firmware for the router is up to date and it shouldn't be this hard and a waste of time.
So
He also has a wireless cisco router, don't know model I'm home now, but I assume that it has an Ethernet input port. I've looked for a USB to Ethernet adapter but didn't see one. Any one know of one ?
Thanks
BTW: He just bought an Emachines w/Win 7 on it and I'm kinda inclined to go at the ctr500 some more. I hope i can get some help here.
