Hi Aragorn,
If you go to www.ntlworld.com\ntlshop look at the wireless routers recommended, you'll find it there Actiontec wireless DSL/Cable Modem 802.11g wireless networking kit . If you go down to the descriptions etc it lists interface ports, ethernet input. ethernet output, USB output, wireless transmission. I dont know why it doesnt appear on Actiontecs' home page
but it does exist, I'm not going mad ! yet !!

Hi Paul,

I've got Zonealarm, and AVG antivirus running on desktop !
I havent checked it for a while but I can do tonight ! but that wouldnt explain how the harwired desktop accesses internet with no problems when wireless laptop is turned off ! yet when I use the laptop , the hardwired desktop just hangs with an occaisional internet connection
happening but even then it just hangs !
