Okay, heres the deal. Im setting up a computer i wont be able to acess other than over the network.
The biggest problem is theres no way i can get a cable to it, so i threw my wireless card in it.
Windows XP pro sp1a, wireless drivers installed...i need a way to get this computer to stay connected to the wireless no matter what it decides.
There is only one signal here, my router, and theres no WEP encryption.
I will be using a static IP, and the computer will spend allot of time not doing much, ith bursts of file transfers that could last hours or seconds.
i do NOT want to have to haul a monitor into this computer every time it decides it cant stay connected unless i choose to connect to the network. it drives me up a wall doing that on computers that its not a big deal.
any ideas how to do this?
(also, making a network bridge to connect that wireless to the wired would be cool, i have a small wired network segment i would like connected to the rest, but the xp bridge just sucks at life)
