How to set up a home network?

Ok so I suck at this. I want to set a wireless network to connect my iPhone laptop xbox and my printer together but I have no idea how to do it. What do I need? Any help is appreciated

1. There should be a network, it could be ethernet, LAN or even DIAL-UP, any network will be ok. 2. Connect laptop to internet directly and free download My Wi-Fi Router software. 3. Turn your laptop into a wireless network with the Wi-Fi software. Then you show, all of Wi-Fi devices can connect to internet at the same time.

You need a wireless access point.

Many home routers have one built in, and they are marketed as wireless routers.

If you have an internet connection, can you tell us the make/model of any equipment you have that provides this?

  • Wi-Fi on iPhone keeps saying unable to join network (my network name)? How can I fix this! It's been like this for a week but it works on my laptop fine. I tried unplugging it for a few seconds, I tried resetting network settings, I tried turning my phone off then on again, and I know I'm typing it right. I even typed it in upper case AND lower case. Does anyone know how I can fix this?
  • What's the difference between off-network and on-network? I'm try to work out which is best for what I want out of the service.
