wireless router problems
I am trying to set up the d link wireless router to my pc. the installation guide says to connect the router via ethernet cable to the pc. However i do not have an ethernet port on the back of the pc. Any tips on how to overcome this problem as i cannot use the usb adapter until i have installed this way.
Thanks in advance.

Don't beleive them - you can install the router with the wireless adaptor- Install the wireless adaptor on your PC-
Then boot up the router open Internet Explorer or Firefox find the IP address from the instructions typically something like 192.168.0.1 enter into the address bar you will see a log on box you need the login details the admin name and password (will be in the instructions ) you will be on the router configuration page
Enter the details relating to your ISP -you need to get these first - when entered the router will connect
When all is well enable WPA PSK encryption on the router and on the wireless device on the PC
Then you're finished!!
