Hi, I havent really got a clue so was hoping someone could advise me. I have a computer downstairs on Windows XP connected to NTL broadband. My son has my old computer windows 98 in his bedroom. Can I buy one of those router things as in Argos to enable him to use the internet in his bedroom? If not, can anyone advise me on what I could do. Thankyou, Angela.

Does that mean both comps can surd the net at teh same time for the one monthly fee?
Is it easy to det up?
ThanksI ave a dodgy H, so sometimes I will sound dead common, on occasion dead stupid and rarely, pig ignorant. Sometimes I may be these things, but I will always blame it on my dodgy H.
