Router with STB
Hi All

My mate has virgin (exNTL) and currently has a cat5 lead from his STB running up to a USB convertor which goes into his PC.

Now he wants to get a wireless network going so am i right in saying an ethernet router would be ok? Thinking something like this Linkage

So basically he gets rid of USB, plugs a cat5 into the switch on the router, and plugs the router into the STB? Will i need to spoof mac addresses etc?

Any help/guidance much appreciated...
