Solutions: Setting up Internet access for two PCs using a router
Q. I have two home computers and am trying to set up a network with Road Runner. I purchased a Linksys BEFSR41 version 2 EtherFast Cable/DSL router with four-port switch. One PC runs Windows XP, on which I went through the process to set up for a network. When finished, I made a floppy for the other system, which has Windows 98SE, and followed the onscreen setup. I contacted Linksys for help, but found little. Do I need to get a group switch or can it be done with what I have?

Everyone has endured those earsplitting emergency warning tests on radio and television. Given the prevalence of computers, should there be such a system for e-mail as well?
