I have BT broadband that comes throught the phone cable and wanted to use that to set up wireless. Just have few questions before I attemp it, hope you can help:
1. Can anybody recommend a wireless router? I'm going to get it from either PC World, Argos or Maplin, I've looked at few but not sure which one to go for.
There was a Netgear one in Dixons - 108MBps, no idea how fast is the current broadband connection (and don't want to be on the phone to BT for 3 hours trying to figure it out!). Does that one sound OK? Amnybody used it and are you happy with it?
2. Can two computers share the same wireless network (both browsing the web, for example). I know it will slow down the speed but this doesn't bother me.
3. Can I set up a wireless home network using the same router or do I need something else (want to be able to remotely access the different computer's hard drives)
4. Any good links to how to secure it once it is set up?
Thanks again!
