Would I get double the connection speed if I connected two mobile broadband modems to my computer?

admin — Fri, 13 May 2011 03:15:53 +0000

If I connect two mobile broadband modems to my PC, would I get double the download speed since both of them are streaming data? Would they interfere with each other? If they share the same radio frequency, would that make them share the available bandwidth on that frequency like two computers streaming data from the same landline?

What if I have two computers and I connect them to separate mobile broadband modems. Would their combined download speed be doubled?

Just curious…
Thanks for the responses – it seems the limitation is in the operating systems, and not the hardware then? What about the two (unnetworked) computers with separate modems approach? If they both had 8mbit wireless modems would each of them independently be able to download with 8mbit speed, thus giving a maximum speed of 16mbit? I know it would work if it was two separate landlines but with two wireless modems I’m curious about interference.

Oh, and just for clarification I’m just curious about how these unusual setups would work in theory, I’m actually not planning to do any of this!

Splitting an already routed internet connection?

admin — Thu, 12 May 2011 14:01:00 +0000

Ok, so before we begin, I need to split an internet connection that runs form the bottom of my house to my office. Here’s the situation.
I Live in a 3 floor house and my modem is located on the first floor. From my modem I have a wireless router.From there is a cat5e cable that goes from my router, outside on the side of my house to the 3rd floor to my computer.
I plan to add an xbox into my office and require a way to connect it to the internet. Can I split the connection from my cat5e cable in my office that is ALREADY coming from a router with another router? Theoretically it should work but i have never heard of anything like this, anyone got any ideas?

admin — Sat, 07 May 2011 03:15:48 +0000

I have one computer with cable broadband and on the other I use dial-up. I use a thumbdrive to transfer large files from one to the other, but this seems silly. The only information I can get from the ISP is that do-it-yourself networking is not supported. (They charge a ridiculous price to do it for you, of course.)

How to use my neighbor’s internet connection (wifi, with permission) but maintain my own wifi network?

admin — Sat, 07 May 2011 01:00:50 +0000

My neighbor and I also work next door to each other. I give him access to my wifi connection (via his laptop) at work. He got high speed at home and has shared it with me (and my wife). Thing is, his wifi signal only barely arrives to our house, and only if we are sitting on the patio or in the bedroom.
I’ve got a linksys WAP54g (access point) and a Linksys WRT54g (router) and two laptops with wireless cards.
I can plug the AP into my laptop via cat5 and get the wifi signal and internet, no problem. I can configure my router to run a network at home and share files or use a networked hard drive. No problem. The problem seems to be when I plug the AP into the WAN port of the router, I don’t get internet via the router.
I upgraded the firmware on both AP and router. Still no dice. Feeling like I’m very close but must be missing something.
