Re: Wireless Networking (Quick Question...)
If you use NTL's Xbox service (which gives you a second IP), and ONLY ONE PC and an Xbox, you can run with no router (just the access point).

If you already have a wired router, you can extend it to wireless using an access point on one of the outputs.

If none of the above are true - eg:
1. You're using an Xbox without buying the extra service from NTL (you may be violating TOS)
2. You want to use more than one PC
3. You do not already have a wired broadband router

Then you WILL need a wireless router, instead of just an access point.
