Re: wireless on NTL - router, hub or access point
A router will give you a DCHP server that will enable the connection of multiple devices, a hub or access point will basically bridge the airwaves from the STB to the laptop, so you will still have the NTL IP address on your laptop (and it will be the only device that can use the NTL internet connection).

Getting a router will also act as a hardware firewall.
