Wireless Connection - Belkin?
 

Hi,

I am looking to set up a wireless network for a friend and was wondering how it can be done on and NTL Broadband Modem.

I was thinking of buying a Belkin Wireless router - The ADSL version. But then it struck me that NTL is really cable broadband. So how can it be done?

I woudl ideally like to buy a belkin product as they are most reliable in my experince. Would i be ok with a ADSL router and just use a convertor from the RJ45 coming out of the NTL Modem to an ADSL Phone line connection?

Hope you can help, and thanks in advance

:erm:

:welcome:

lots of people having problems with belkin routers at the moment (search the forums)

An ADSL router will not work on a cable connection.

Im with NTL and i got my belkin router from PC world (despite being unhelpfull they do have some good deals sometimes) I have had nothing but trouble so i would steer clear of this combination of router and ISP;)

I have had my Belkin for a couple of years with no problems whatsoever. But I have matched the router with Belkin wireless cards.

Having already set up several Belkin products for freidns with different IP's it is so easy to do but with NTL they do put a spanner in the works having cable instead of ASDL. But Belkin do lots of products so i will look into it.

Thanks for your help! :D
