I have BT Infinity, if I use cable, I get 37mb, and if I use a wireless adapter, I get 17MB. I have a Epson wireless printer so Im useing a wireless adapter for my broadband. Is there any chance of me using cable for my broadband, and use the wireless adapter for my printer. The wireless adapter is a Belkin N Wireless USB Network Adapter.:D
 
Doesn't the Epson wireless printer connect to the BT home hub wirelessly anyway? So all you need to do is connect the PC to the router via cable and it will still see the printer on the network with the same IP. That's how I've setted up my brother's Epson printer for his PC.

Thanks, I'll give that a try.

Edit: That did work.
