Connect to LAN and wireless

javaIdiot — Sat, 04 Aug 2007 12:08:48 +0800

hi,

I would like to know whether it is possible to connect to LAN and wireless broadband together at the same time. The LAN has specific IP address and when i connected to the LAN i couldnt connect to my wireless broadband. Only when i change the IP/TCP setting to automatically assigned IP then only my wireless broadband works. Is it possible to set the IP address of the wireless router to exactly the same as the LAN so that i can connect to both at the same time?

hybrid network

javaIdiot — Tue, 26 Jun 2007 12:24:43 +0800

I am now working in IT department of a company and i am facing some problems with some networking problem.

The company needs to connect to the building LAN so that the company can submit the daily sale to the building management. On the other hand, my company is using wireless broadband for internet. The problem i am facing is i couldnt connect to both at the same time. After doing some research from google, i found that hybrid networking mayb could solve this problem. But i couldnt find any page that provides all the details about hybrid networking.
Or u all have any other suggestion on my problems?
Thanks in advance!

i have tried the following ways but i still couldnt get my email account works
1. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click Disk Cleanup.
2. Select the drive on which Outlook Express installed, and then click OK.
3. To remove unnecessary files from your hard disk follow the instructions on the computer screen.
4. After you finish removing the files that you want to remove, run Scan Disk:a. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click Scan Disk.
b. Under Type of test, click Standard, and then click Start.

NOTE:If you can leave your computer running for several hours (such as overnight), click the Through option.
c. After you finish running Scan Disk, click Close.
d. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click Disk Defragmenter.
e. In the Which drive do you want to defragment check box, click the drive on which Outlook Express is installed, and then click OK.
f. When the defragmentation process is finished, close the Disk Defragmenter dialog box.

5. Restart your computer.
6. Try to download your e-mail messages

Do u all have other resolution?? And why is it the system out of memory? There is still 18Gb space in my hard disk. And I have cleared most of the email messages in my email. And yet there is still out of memory. Do you all know how to solve this problem? Thanks in advance. *URGENT*
