How do I get Broadband on 3 PCs ?

Basically, all you need technology-wise is a single combined router/'modem', and an ADSL microfilter for that and each telephone plugged in. The filters are plugged into each extension socket, and the 'phones and router connect to these. Want to know how may filters you'll need? Just count the number of phones in your home, and add 1, just in case.
Depending on the broadband package you choose though, these things may be supplied by the supplier with your connection anyway.

Would you consider other ASDL providers?
I normally recommend broadband providers in the following order:
1.Telewest if you are lucky enough to live in one of there areas.[just announced 4Mbit broadband]
2.ASDL [i.e. whoever has a good priced product, with no monthly download limit]
And advise people/businesses to stay clear of:
1. NTL [poor customer service]
2. AOL [poor custoemr service - also some technical reasons: Businesses cannot route SMTP email over it and they do NOT tell them this when they sign up - and if you realise later they say TO BAD - you have signed a 12Month contract....]
Just my 2p worth!
And yes I work in IT.0
