You would needs a wireless access point with a broadband router to access with wireless. For the point I'd recommend d-link: http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000068UYB.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg |

Mexico, you plug the device above (or something similar) into you're main phone socket. Thats about as much as I know, my mate did the rest  |

you can pick them up for £60 if you look around. i had a nightmare setting mine up while the bunch of fuckers that are my housmates decided it would be fun to watch me tear all my hair out. then the fuckers didn't even thank me after hours of stress. i might block their pcs then watch them stress :twisted:

The wireless stuff built into laptops is only useful out of the box if your in a "hot spot" like macdonalds and other places like that, apart from that you will need a DSL wireless router like above to use it in your home If you ADSL at home get one of these bad boys - http://www.dabs.com/uk/Search2/Product+Details.htm?quicklinx=2VCD&searchphrase=netgear%20wirelessthats what i have, took about 5 mins to set up |
