Sorry about weird title.


Anyway. My Area has FINALLY been verified for broadband. In fact I am lucky they tell me, I can get up to 3mb :rolleyes: :D :cool:

However all is not good.


I have to share the connection in the house.

How do I go about it?

I need it to go to:

1x main pc (read it as mine ;). Need to find a way to fiddle it so i get more speed. I have sort of an agreement with my dad as my sister only goes on chatrooms and emails, yet still wants half the speed. cheeky :( )
2x other pcs. . There is one family pc (p4 2.6 2gb ram etc) and another one (Athlon 2400xp 512mb ram).

What do I need to buy to get myself some wireless connection. I love playing online games like CS-S Battlefield and all the source games.

Reliability is a must as well as security. (I have been in enough peoples connections to know i need a secure line).

I might at some time use it for lan.


Money is not a problem to a point. But I dont want to be spending hundreds.

How about a cheap and a dear option




Thanks very much
 
Ok, you need a wireless access point (router) and you need either 3x wireless LAN cards in each of them or you can have 2 of them wireless and one hooked up to the router via a cable.

With the wireless network cards you can get them USB or PCI. They are both around the same price, I just setup a wireless network at my girlfriends house. I put a PCI card in her's works a doddle.

For the router you are best getting an ADSL wireless router. A D-link one would be good, I have always bought D-link routers and they are reliable.
 
Okay dokey does this seem okay.

I am totally useless at things like this..
 
G.Skill? Go for GeIL or OCZ if you are getting PC6400 :) If you are getting it all from OcUK then I would get it all at once yeah, makes the carriage cheaper :)
 
really?

Thanks.

Which one would you suggest I go for.

I am thinking of getting the BT's connection. (3mb) I live in Ireland.

I was reading their T&C. Shocking :eek:

They are

The Customer undertakes not to use the Service or the Equipment:
for any improper, immoral or unlawful purpose, nor cause any nuisance by the use of the Service
.

What do they mean by that :eek: :o :(

It gets worse.....

BT shall have the right forthwith to terminate the Agreement or any Service for due reason, including, but not limited to, if:-

you are suspected of involvement with fraud or acts which are of defamatory, offensive, abusive, , menacing, unsuitable or unlawful character in connection with use of the Service..


Does that mean they will be checking on me?????

What constitutes offensive, abusive, , menacing, unsuitable?

Hell Counter Strike could come under that.... What about other things ;)
 
The one I confirmed for you still supports ADSL, it just supports cable too. AndrewP was speccing you something that supports ADSL only :)

damn the first 2 could be a problem.
Pornography is legal world-wide if you're over 21 and it doesn't portray acts of violence or seedy things like children and animals. You'll never find an ISP that will let you get away with warez, but most don't care.

As for hacking, well... That one goes without saying really, lol. :eek:
