Add Computers to the Network
Choose a computer and connection type
After your first computer is connected to the HomePortal residential gateway and your Internet connection
has been established, it is time to connect the other computers to the network.
Use any or all of the following methods to connect additional computers to your network:
* If you use a 2Wire wireless adapter (PC card or USB adapter) in your computer for wireless
networking, the HomePortal Setup Wizard software automatically configures it to communicate with
the HomePortal during setup, but you will need to install the driver. See Appendix A for detailed
installation instructions.
If you are NOT using a 2Wire wireless adapter, you will need to manually configure your adapter of
choice to communicate with the HomePortal BEFORE installing the HomePortal software. See
Appendix B for detailed configuration instructions.
