Hello, I have two wireless enabled laptops and have just purchased
broadband. It works great with the USB modem, but I am wanting to go
wireless.
The question is, can I have one router downstairs sitting next to the phone
point with no computer wired to it, and then sit elsewhere in the house on
both laptops browsing the internet? Or do I always need a PC wired to
it?
Any help will be much aprechiated. Also, if you could suggest what router I
need?
Sam

Yes, you can, since you already got modem router, then go to get a wireless
access point and connect it to modem router with crossover cable (can use
straight cable if auto MDIX feature is supported). I would recommend you to
use Linksys or Dlink access point, pretty good the performance. You then
configure the access point, so that the labtops could connect to it
wirelessly.
Hope the info helps..
