Using a ADSL connection with multiple computers


Recommended Posts

ah i see, if you have a cat5 cable you get your internet from then a cable router would suite your needs as most take a cat5 cable as an input.

if you search google or an online pc parts retailer for WRT54GL, thats a decent model router that would do what you want :)

you would then need 2 cat5 cables, 1 for each pc or laptop.

how does this router works..

where will i be giving username and password?

i want to provide some more information..

when we log into one system and shuts down the system without logging out we can't connect to the internet for a specified time on the next restart...

You would put your user information inside the router setup. The router is basically a small computer that will authenticate to your ISP and basically be a "traffic guide" for your other machines.

Title Edited

It is as easy as that to be honest. You hook the router to one of the laptops and log on to the router. This is done by going to your browser and type "http://192.168.1.1/" where it will ask you to login (login details are provided).

Next you simply set up the router to connect to your ISP through username and password.

Then you plug the two laptops in and the laptops should automatically connect to the router. All set to go!

    • Chinese? It sounds extremely dangerous. I’ll reconsider buying a Meta Quest 3.
    • - What's your salary? Is it more than $100k a year? - Nah, it's $100 mil a year.
    • Compared to my ear buds which are the size of a matchbox, cover a much broader frequency range, and work everywhere without setup? Yeah, still not buying this as a replacement.
    • Meta's Superintelligence team staffed by 50% Chinese talent, 40% ex-OpenAI by Hamid Ganji Mark Zuckerberg's latest big bet at Meta involves building a team of the best AI superstars in the market to lead the so-called Superintelligence Labs. The goal of this team is to develop AI models that will ultimately lead to Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). AGI refers to an AI model with capabilities comparable to, or even beyond, those of the human brain. Achieving human-level cognitive abilities with an AI model requires substantial investments, as well as hiring the best talent to build such a system. That's why Meta is throwing hundreds of millions of dollars at AI researchers from OpenAI, Apple, and other companies to recruit them for its Superintelligence team. A user on X has now shared a spreadsheet that provides us with some unique insights into Meta's Superintelligence team and the origins of its 44 employees. The leaker claims this information comes from an anonymous Meta employee. The listing claims that 50 percent of the staff at the Superintelligence team are from China, which demonstrates the significant role of Chinese or Chinese-origin researchers in Met's AI efforts. Additionally, 75 percent of these staff hold PhDs, and 70 percent of them work as researchers. Interestingly, 40 percent of the staff are ex-OpenAI employees whom Mark Zuckerberg poached from the maker of ChatGPT. Additionally, 20 percent of Meta's Superintelligence team members come from Google DeepMind, and another 15 percent come from Scale AI, a startup that Meta recently acquired in a $15 billion deal. Another interesting point is that 75 percent of the Superintelligence team are first-generation immigrants. The leaker claims that each of these employees is now earning between $10 million and $100 million per year, although Meta still needs to confirm these substantial figures. However, it has already been reported that Meta is offering up to $100 million in signup bonuses to poach the best AI talent from OpenAI and other rivals. The revelation that half of Meta's Superintelligence team consists of Chinese nationals could trigger concerns within the Trump administration and Congress.
    • From a quick Google it seems 6GHz is optional on 802.11be. Ubiquiti has one, Unifi U7 Lite.
