A wireless router...
 
Hi,

I am a complete novice at all this, we have one computer in our household and are almost certain that we'll never have another. Our computer is connected by USB to the NTL/Virgin Media cable modem we have.

We have a Nintendo DS that we'd like to have 'online' and play against others. I understand that I need to purchase a wireless router, so I googled and there are plenty to chose from but which will do the job we need and is a decent model?

Thanks in advance.

There are plenty of good ones recommened here:

Linksys are popular on the forum.


Then all you have to do is check it is compatible with the Nintendo DS here:

I'd recommend a router from the Linksys WRT54G range.

Also, if you get this router you will need to plug the router into the computer via ethernet not USB. USB is not a very good method anyway, of connecting to the cable modem anymore...
