Can someone elaborate

You need a router (to plug into your SACM via CAT5) and a PCI / PCMCIA card preferably from the same manufacturer, for each PC you want to network...

There are several sets- but 802.11g is the best VFM- Linksys, Belkin etc all do them...

Also make sure the antennas on your PC aren't in the back with all the wiring as this will mess up your performance...

and the amount of money you will spend on wireless gear would have paid for ntl to move it :erm:

Re: Moving cable modem
 

true say but with wireless gear u could connect more than one computer also if you want to move it again later you will be able to do so fairly easily:D

Re: Moving cable modem
 

also true , but what if the modem is at the other end of the house and there is a problem , would you fancy going backwards and forwards at the asking of t.s. , i wouldnt :erm: :D :D :D

lol truesay but how many times do u have to phone ts?

Re: Moving cable modem
 

fortunately not very often , but i would still like the modem near the computer , even if it is just for the flashing lights , can you get a c.m. with a cool blue led , i like those a lot :D :D :D :D :D

Re: Moving cable modem
 

I got 3 blue led light up fans but most of th leds have stopped working :(


back on topic no i dont think you could get a cm with blue leds unless u took it apart and changed the leds and i doubt NTL would like you doing that!
