    You can get a Modem/Router/WirelessAP from someone like dabs, ebuyer, insight, even ebay for about £40 to £50. Look for something like the Netgear or 3Com routers although there are many to choose from.

    Broadband service will then cost you £10 to £15 per month, there's plenty of review sites eg https://www.broadbandwatchdog.co.uk but also adslguide.org.uk

    I've used discountadsl.co.uk for 11.75 which works well.

    I think I'm right in saying you need an ADSL "Ethernet" wireless router? (Definitely not USB).

    I've just left Telewest after they promised me internet at £18 but charged me £25 and then tried to force me to commit to this for 12 months.

    I have a netgear wireless router - will I be able to use this with ADSL or will I have to buy a modem/wireless router?

    Rubbish! Why do you think that it will be out of date in two years? If it does what is required now, it should still function perfectly well in two years time!

    You should change your signature to "I waste as much as I possibly can" as this is a money saving site!
