Router inside pc - cant get it to work!?!?

Question

My router is included internally in the pc, hp pavilian slimline, there is an antenna in the back.

I have cable internet which is what I'm using now.

I'm trying to create a wireless network..when I set up a 'wireless router or access point' it says I do not have the hardware. When I create a 'wireless ad hoc' I can see the wireless network, but my iphone will not connect to it (for now the only thing that will be using the network)

Answer 1

You have to set up Internet connection sharing between the ethernet and the wireless. BTW, that's not a router. It's just like a wireless pci card, only soldered onto the motherboard.

Answer 2

You don't actually have a router, you have a wireless adapter.  You're not going to set up a wireless network that way.

It's possible to set up internet connection sharing... use the help function.

However, I think your best bet is to get a wireless router.
