| can i share te printer? Just purchased a linksys wrt54g to connect my macbook wirelessly to my mac mini's internet. Please excuse that I don't know much, but...is there anway that I can hook my USB computer up to this router so that they can share this? It is an HP all-in one. I don't mind buying exra cables if I coud print off of both computers. thanks  |

| It is much easier to share from Mac to Mac. (connect the printer to the mini) Read about this in Help > Mac Help on your computer, by entering "share printer" in the question/topic area. |

| Why such and old Linksys router? It only uses only the weak WEP encryption. To share it you can go to System Preferences->Sharing and put a check mark in Printer Sharing.

 I have a WRT54G and it supports WPA2. Maybe it's time for a firmware upgrade? Mine is a version 3.0 but I have it updated to the latest firmware for this particular revision of the WRT54G.
