No webpage to address what I need :(

I have tried and failed to find somewhere to work out just what package is best to suit my personal needs.It leaves me Frustrated,confused, and I give up. My call usage when worked out tells me my house calls are mostly to mobile phones(teenager in house)nuf said lol.I very rarely use the phone.The local calls are almost nil.I have broadband also, I want to enable my son to be online at the same time as me, which means I need a hub? I think lol.It becomes like spaggetti junction when I try to combine an all-in-one
broadband Provider for three pc's, home phone with call allowance options.
I would luvvvvvvv to have incoming calls only, but can't because I want to be online.I have skype to make calls and a mobile phone. As has the rest of the house.I had thought about banning mobile calls, but before I inquired a friend told me BT are one of the most expensive to be with for phone and broadband, as you can see I am beginning to read like "spaggetti junction".
Can anyone advise me pleasssssssse?. I have been with bt for years for everything, but the ammount they take is rediculous.

Please someone out there advise me, or give me an address I can give input in FULL of my phone use habits, as everything so far is either for one or the other and does not work out my personal needs.

A skint AmberZ eagerly awaits a reply.
Thnx in advance :)

    I will try to decipher some of your questions. :D

    You will need a wireless router/modem for your broadband so you connect share the same Internet connection all at the same time. For each computer to "talk" with the router/modem, they will need some kind of wireless device such as wireless card (this is a link that I saw on another thread, I am not trying to say that you should get this one but you should consider a wireless such as this). With some router/modems you can get a usb dongle which will need to be plugged into the computer that requires a connection such as these.

    Use this to check for Broadband as an example. Use this for phone line as an example. Use this for phone calls. Once you have more of an idea come back here for a further discussion.

    Use the Uswitch for other bills that you may have, but I would say use it as a guide only and do not rely on them (they may not provide all the deals that are most suitable for your usage).
