Wireless

[TOM M]

Ive purchased a new laptop today and its got the WIFI enabled thing on it. Im tempted to buy a wireless router thing for wireless internet, will they work with 56k internet as we dont have broadband??

Can anyone recommend any routers and are they easy to set up??

Cheers
Tom

You can't use a router with 56k as far as I know...

If so, it'd be about as much use as chocolate nipples.

How much are you paying for 56k? Broadband is piss cheap nowadays.

Because we aint got broadband in the village yet, bt keep putting the date off as not enough people want it

I think you can do it with the router i have. Basically the modem is plugged into the pc and ethernet cable from the pc to the router, it automatically detects the internet connection and broadcasts it.

Pretty sure you could get it to run.

Couldnt you get an old fashioned modem (one that isnt a PCI card) then have that connected to the router so whn you want to access the internet it dials up regardless of which pc you are on.

Wasnt that how it was done in the past anyway?
