Right I am a real novice when it comes to computers and have a PC in my bedroom connected to the internet via an NTL cable modem and a long RJ45 (ethernet?) cable from another upstairs room. This has suited me fine until now but my eldest wants to have internet access downstairs and I don't like the idea of using wireless routers (too compicated) so I am wondering if the above devices would enable me to access the internet without using the existing cable in my bedroom and him to do so anywhere else in the house (not necessarily at the same time). To do this would I still need a router or simply connect them via the modem? I also understand they can be used to share files between PCs but would this require additional software?
I've read the FAQ's etc but can't make much sense of them so can anyone explain in simple terms what using these devices would enable me to do and how I would connect them to the PCs, modem etc.
Please keep it simple for me

Many thanks.
