Just as I was about to buy from NewEgg a 4-port D-Link external
router for my computer
I found that I already had a Gigabyte Desktop Adapter with info:
2.4GHz, 802.11b/g, 54Mbps. Basically it is an antenna attached to a
PCI card, so I guess the computer must be running if I want to listen
to my Internet radio ???
Last night I temporarily moved the DSL modem to the radio and it
worked very nicely.
Had another thought. If I buy the D-Link router - it is a box
external to the computer -
will it function if the computer is off and I want to use the radio?
The following is about the router:
"Perfect for home or small office use, the D-Link EBR-2310 offers
superior connectivity and excellent security at a price that's just
right. With four 10/100Mbps Ethernet connectors, the EBR-2310 can
connect up to four PCs or other network devices. Advanced switching
technology effectively and efficiently manages your network traffic
so that your data keeps flowing, no matter how much of it there is. "
So I guess the router will work ok when the computer is down.
TIA
Yes, A wireless router works with out the computer.
you will need to use the computer to set it up how ever. things
like the WAB security log on for wireless connections etc.. Unless you
want to leave it opened!

Many would love you for that!,. Free
internet!
I bought a D-Link 4 port wired router and am very pleased with it.
Now I am struggling with the Aluratek Internet radio, especially
the Jukebox. Has anyone conquered this Radio/Jukebox pair?
TIA
The Aluratek was a piece of trash and I returned it.
