is sitting outside the grocery store composing his next post on his Blackberry.
My Linksys Wireless Router (model WCG200) supports 802.11a, 802.11b and 802.11g. I’ve never had problems with it. I currently use it exclusively for wireless access around the house with a WPC54G Linksys wireless adapter plugged into the PCMCIA slot on my laptop. I’ve tried a Belkin wireless access point and it just didn’t work–with anything. I’ve tried a Netgear wireless router (WGR614) which is faster in terms of total throughput, but the Linksys router is by far the easiest to configure and manage.
I’ve figured out how to use the Blackberry as a modem to connect my computer to the Internet so I don’t have to share the awful, over-utilized Internet connection in a hotel and so I can connect to the Internet while I’m on the road.
So, how does one set up their computer so they can use their Blackberry to connect to the Internet?
This blog is powered by a CGI application called WordPress which I installed to my website from my Blackberry last week. This post was written from the road while stopped in rush hour traffic. Mobile computing meets cellular Internet and Web 2.0 to converge in a wonder of modern technology! Blogging in motion!
But seriously, don’t try this at home kids! I’m what’s called an expert.
