in Techie Stuff
Can anyone advise me on what I need to buy, I am completely useless at techie things ! We have BT broadband and I need a wireless router that will connect with 2 ps3 units and daughters laptop ( ocassionally ) when she's home from uni. All I have managed to work out so far is that it has to be an ADSL .. but apart from that, haven't a clue ! Many thanks to anyone who can help with a recommendation.

This category on Ebuyer is for you. Setting up a router to work with the ps3 online can be a bit tricky but 99.9% of routers do now support uPnP (plug and play so it will open the ports in your firewall automatically).
If you have any trouble connecting the PS3's online I strongly suggest you visit their official tech support forums they have a comprehensive guide to what settings need to be.
Brand wise I recommend you go Buffalo or Netgear, they have better vista support.0 -
Ask BT for a (free) home hub.Tell them you will leave if you don''t get one.They usually play ball,if not buy one from ebay for about £10.We have BT broadband and I need a wireless router0
