When the owners of desktop computers have a laptop equipped with wireless network support, the task arises to combine these two devices for simultaneous access to the Internet. Correctly configuring the asus wl-520gc router, you can solve the problem.

Save the settings of the current Internet connection to a separate file. To do this, click on the "Start" button, select "Settings" and go to the "Control Panel". In the new window, click on the "Network Connections" shortcut. You will see the "LAN" section. Find the line "Local Area Connection" in it. Right-click to open Properties.

Step 3
Set new parameters. Select the "Obtain an ip-address automatically" and "Obtain dns-server automatically" values, click "OK".

Step 5
In the next window, select the "Quick setup" option and click on the "OK" button. Select the time zone you are in and click Next. In the values that appear, select "PPTP" and click "Next" again. In a new window, you will be asked to enter the username and password provided by your ISP to access the Internet. Click on the "Next" button again.
