Hi all.
Well to cut a long story short....
I have a PC upstairs and laptop downstairs and want to buy a speedtouch box for upstairs so that no headache taking the box and stuff up there at night but what i want to know is.....
Can the PC be used on the net upstairs and the laptop be used downstairs on the net at the same time?
If that makes sense?
Cheers

you can do it wirelessly or with cables mate.......
wireless routers are about £40 from pc-world - or they were the last time i looked.... you will need a wireless card tho unless either the laptop or pc is wirelessly enabled

O and you can get either a wired or wireless one so go for whatever suits you. personally id have wireless with a laptop

Yeah, when i bought my wireless router about a year back it was £70 and came with a free dongle to allow wifi use on either a laptop with no wifi or a desktop.
I actually have the dongle still unused somewhere....
