Re: Set Top Box - What Router?

Ok,
if i had a ADSL connection i would use a ADSL Router,
and with that type of connection only the router would need to be switched on. And if it was a wireless ADSL Router then like the sky set up no pc's need to be "Swithced on"

Now i dont have a Virgin / NTL Modem my internet connection is via my Set Top Box and from there goes to a main pc where the internet connection sharing takes place.

But if the main Pc isnt switched on then no one can use the internet. And what i want to achive is like the sky setup for broadband. That's a with a wireless router, and no need for a main machine to be switched on constantly to provide wifi to other machines around the house.

Where i'm getting confused is this.

I dont have a NTL modem,
I have a set top box so how can i make my home wifi like a sky broadband set up?

What steps do i need to take.
