How to get Internet on the Samsung Tab 2

stuzhunter · 2012-11-11 01:54:55

Hi, I just bought a Samsung Tab 2. I currently have my broadband with Virgin Media with a modem connected to my computer. Do I need to buy a router to get wifi internet access? Do I need to speak to Virgin Media about this? Any helps would be appreciated? Thanks

Guys, thanks for all the help.. I have phoned Virgin Media and they said all I need is a super-hub router ( I only have a basic modem) and they are sending me on free of charge..and also increasing my broadband capacity to 30MB.

Should do the job and you can't argue with the price!
Only thing you may find with the Superhub is that the range of its wireless connectivity is a bit limited, in either G or N class. That's been my experience anyway, and of others from what I read. Otherwise, they seem to do the job and just need the ocassional reboot.
