Need Networking Solution

[monster_munch]

I'm not a computer genius so I can't quite work out what I need to buy but

I have a Virgin Media Box Downstairs, that cable runs right into the back of my PC. This is fine.

But... Now my sister has a computer and wants to be connected + we both have iphones that we'd like to use WIFI on!

BUT! I want my Computer to be connected via CAT5 as directly as possible because I play computer games for England and Europe! (Geeky I know, but the ping quality is the difference between fragging and being fragged).

So Do I need;

VIRGIN BOX >>>

cat 5 >>

WIRELESS ROUTER >>>

cat 5 >>> MY PC

Wireless enabled >> for sisters pc and i phones?

Is that cool? What should I buy

Thanks in adavance you legends you

This is the 104 which is a 4 port hub.. very handy.. the 101 is the single which OCuK don't stock anymore for some reason. The 101 goes ideally the router end and the 104 goes where you like whee there is a plug socket.

No it doesnt, any wireless router would work fine for you mate.

Budget this one:

If you want faster wireless which I assume your iphones are not wireless N enables so would be a waste at the moment but in future you may like having:
