We have a desktop PC, an Apple MAC G3 computer and three wireless-capable laptops.

We have a Samsung STB and currently use the PC and MAC taking alternate turns to connect to the internet. i.e. either the PC or the MAC not both.

Ideally, we would like to connect a high-speed wireless router with LAN connections to the STB so that the PC and MAC can connect to the internet via LAN cable and the three laptops can connect to the internet wirelessly.

What would be the best router to do this bearing in mind our internet connection is 4Mb?

Also how does the router deal with the signals it receives from various sources?

Any information would be welcomed.
