eTower 366c - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Meditrina · 08-13-2005, 08:36 AM

I searched the forum and did not find anything about this. I cannot even find the answer on the eMachine website.

I have an old machine, eTower 366c and would love to connect it to the internet. My main machine has a cable modem and the wireless router. What do I need in the eTower to wirelessly connect it to the router? (forgive me if I am not using the right terminology).

How old is it? Does it have USB ports?

If so, you can just buy a simple little USB wireless adapter

It does have a USB port, I checked. Thanks so much!

Is this what you are talking about?

Yup, make sure it's compatible with your router. If it's wireless B, get a wireless B adapter, if it's a G router, get a G adapter.

I cannot thank you enough. I went out and got one. I can hardly wait to set it up.

MikeSty · 08-13-2005, 07:09 PM

Don't thank me yet - you haven't set it up?

Meditrina · 08-14-2005, 07:24 AM

I can officially thank you now. I now have 2 computers!
