I hope you never spent hours on it last night. There was severe problems with browsing on NTL last night and ebay was one of the affected sites. I was also affected.

I have to say after 3 belkin routers 54g in succession, I gave up and bought a D-Link. It works like a dream! I wouldn't buy Belkin now. I had so many problems, tried getting the firmware upgrade etc and still to no avail The only thing I think would have worked was a large hammer. And my temper was close to that. I eventually atayed my arm and got my money back an =d out it towards a D-Link one. Much happier now.

I'm on NTL and have two desktop computers on a wired network, plus a printer. I also ordered the dell laptop in the other thread.

Could anyone advise me if I could keep the exsisting wired set up as it is and add this router somehow so my just my laptop is wireless, or would I have to buy seperate network cards for the two desktops and a printer server.

Any advise would be welcome as I not that clued up on wireless networking.

Sue this wireless router has 4 wired connections as well as the wireless facility, so you would replace your current router with this one, wire up the wireables & wireless the wirelessables
