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

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

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!
