Ive just been given a Safecom 4 Port Wireless Cable/DSL Router by a friend so that i didnt have to buy and install another Ethernet Card as right now ive got a pc donwstairs which has Wanadoo/Organge broadband, non wireless. I also have a PC in my bedroom upstairs which is linked via Network cable to share the internet connection. I also have a 360 in my living room donwstairs, and i want to send Xbox live to my 360 from the downstairs PC. The problem is that the Router he gave me didnt come with and Installation guide.
So from my minor knowledge, ive been able to set it up myself in the following way:
the ethernet port of the downstairs pc (with the internet Alcatel Speedtouch modem connected) connected tot he Router, in the WAN slot, and my PC upstairs connceted in one of the four Ethernet ports. As it stands i can get internet on my upstairs PC, but only when the downstairs computer is turned on.
Any ideas how to correct it so that my pc upstairs can access the internet when the downstairs PC is turned off?
