Hi
Network means many computers (not one at the time). Wireless Routers and
Access Points, are Network devices. I.e they can work with many computers
(in theory 256 of them). So, no need the switch Off one computer while the
other is working.
Check the Wireless Router's Wireless settings, may be it configured to work
at 802.11g only, and thus can not connect to the 802.11b.
If so change the settings to accommodate both.
