    Ok, first of all i have a router hooked up to my pc which works fine. My sisters laptop gets signal from the router and it works but so does my neighbor. My neighbor downloads like crazy so i lag alot while playing online. I put a WEP security on my router but give my sister a keycode and she types it in, in her laptop. She connects but it says she has limited connectivity and does let her load pages.
    I have a Wrt-54g Linksys router and would like to know if i can change her priveleges by letting her have a full connection.

    Sorry if this is not the right section to post this in, but i couldnt find one it would fit.

    If all the default settings are used on your linksys then she should have full access to network and internet. Limitd connectivity means she is connecting to the router but not the network and the internet. Check both computers and make sure they have exactly the same workgroup name. Then make sure the WEP codes are the same on router and laptop. Make sure the same 64 bit or 128 bit and encryption type are selected.
    On the router settings - "Domain Name" should be same as "workgroup name" on laptop
