Hardware Advice/Help

Jakeandme

I will admit i am totally confused and need simple advice.

I have Virgin BB 20meg, the cable coming into the house is in a spare bedroom, it is plugged into a small black box with one Ethernet connection which goes to the desktop via cable.

I have bought a net book from my grandson (Aser Aspire One), i do not want to go the wireless route, i want to use home plugs as it seems less hassle.

Could someone please advise me on what i would need to make this happen, as i said earlier i get a bit lost with advice on web sites but have always found advice on here very easy to follow when i have asked.

a wireless router is a lot less hassle and cheaper to buy and run than home plugs and a router.

Either get Virgin to give you a wireless router or buy one yourself.
They come with 4 Ethernet ports so one for your Netbook and one for your laptop. You also have the option of using wireless should you so desire in the future.
