Btw is there anything in maplin that would work? as i have a maplin 5mins from my house

Edit: If not could some one post a link to this dongle on Vm website...
yes you either want an 802.11G Pcmcia card (if your laptop has a slot)

Or an 802.11G wireless adaptor.

As others have said unless you really want to use the virgin supplied software (which you don't need) any one should work.

I think a few people said Maplins "White box" adaptors seem to work ok, and are around £15
