    Hi hi123,

    You should get more help with this on the techie board, so I'll move your thread over there.

    The kit in this thread may be of use to you, as NTL modems have an Ethernet port.

    If you bought the one from PC world, you would still need either a PCMIA card or a USB WiFi dongle to go with it.

    ;)
