O.P. Wireless internet
Greetings friends,
I've been pestered long enough by my sister to get wireless internet into our house. So sadly i will have to split my lovely internet connection with her...bad times. But having never even learnt about wireless technology before i'm a little baffled as to what to get.
Here's the facts.
I'm on virgin media cable broadband.
I have a sb5100 motorola modem which i discovered (you may remember my previous thread...) does actually have an ethernet connection. So i'm now connecting to the net using ethernet from modem into computer.
My sister has a laptop.
What do i need to get a wireless network up and running? I saw something today in the shops called netgear for cable internet. Is it as straight forward as plugging modem into wireless router and putting two receivers into computer and laptop? Surely nothing is that straight forward...
So basically my questions
- How does wireless work
- what do i need to get a wireless network
- what is the best wireless router to buy?
- Why am i single
Mucho gracias and much love in advance
