Hello, hope someone can give me the info that I
am looking for here.
I want to set up my house with a wireless
network so that I can brouse the internet
downstairs rather than having to go to my home
office where the phone line is sited.
I bought a Belkin802.11grouter to do this with
but, the instructions lead me to think that I
have to have a computer permanently connected to
the router by the yellow wi fi cable supplied.
What I really want to do is use the router as
a modem transmitter (probably the wrong terminology
but, I hope you understand what I mean!) so that
the internet is accessable in any room of my
house. I only have one computer and that is
my laptop which is wireless ready.
I have a HP laptop with centrino processor - not
too sure which model it is but, I gues that
is not too important. I have connected to
wireless networks in hotels etc so I know it
works ok.
I just want to know whether what I want to do
is possible with the kit I have bought or
whether I need to get something else.

Hi Folks,
Nobody posted a reply (which is fine!) so I
plodded on and configured the router while wired
via the ethernet cable. Once the configuration was
complete I unplugged the cable and found that I
was able to connect to and brouse the
internet.
