ok.. so i just bought a netgear DG834GT router and usb adaptor. http://www.netgear.co.uk/wireless_broadband_router_dg834gt.php

after installing the usb adaptor software, i can see the router and connect, but it wont connect to the internet, even tho the ADSL light is on

the manual is crap, and i dont know what to do to get it on the internet.

any help guys?

ok.. its connected hardlined to the pc, and wireless to my dads laptop.

i set it up using the setup on the netgear disk whihc wouldnt work before for some reason :confused:

question is, do i have to do that again when i unplag it and take it back downstairs?
