Anyone using wireless yet? I want to set up a wireless
network at home because I'm not allowed to start putting
cables round the place.

Anyone done this yet and able to recommend a wireless
router?

Cheers,

giginger

any linksys or belkin router will do.

I'm not the best it wireless networking but my mate Paul is
a networking guru.

If you still stuck tomorrow I'll ask him what he reccomends
and get back to you

don't go belkin. I had a bad experience with a belkin router
and the linksys is a replacement for that. I heard a lot of
good things about it.
Here in case you're interested:
Linksys WRT54G
Linksys WPC54G

I had a bad experience with a belkin bluetooth dongle so it
seems they're crap.

Isn't Cisco that company that owns the entire internet?

Sure man.
I have 7 systems to connect. I'm starting with my laptop by
wifi and then we'll see how that goes. The rest is using the
router 10/100 switch and a spare 10/100 netgear hub

Cheers for the advice. :)

I've got an Airport into a netgear thing, it all just worked
out of the box, that's PC's with wireless cards, macs and a
palm, I'm usually crap with things electronic.

You mean an airport plugged into a normal wired hub? Isn't
the Airport a Mac thing?

I'm really hoping it'll disrupt the long wave radio and stop
my parent listening to the fucking archers on the bbc world
service. It's rotting their brains I tell you!

Yes, it's made by apple but it's just a transmitter really.
