Right, think im getting the hang of this now.

just cant understand why this 'hub' (not router) worked in my old place with 2 pcs at the same time.

So... am i right with this... VM provides 1 IP address that both our PCs cant share at the same time. Why cant we both use it?.... but buying the mentioned wireless router (or any router?) or the VM wireless one will allow us to do this.

Another point to make is that the internet seems very on/off at time. sometimes just wont connect to the PC for hours. i think it maybe to do with me trying the 2nd pc all the time but not too sure.

so basically, my hub is never going to work - and this isnt anything strange.... i need to but a new router.?
