Re: Virgin 2 way splitter

nope, but it doesn't matter anyway because you'll still get full speed. Because computers know wired connections should be faster than wireless, if you are currently connected wirelessly and then you connect a cable to your pc you'll see the wireless connection disappear from the task bar. This doesn't matter though because you are not asking the computer to use both wan connections simultaneously, you are asking the router to do it. Whether you are connected by wire or wirelessly, the router will load balance the traffic across both the connections and give you the best speed.

The only snafu I can see if that the router doesn't have wireless which means you'll have to use another one as a wireless access point. You'll need to do some reading and understand the technology and whole antenna thing to make sure you get one which can truely do 300mbits+ wirelessly (and correspondingly the wireless adapter supports it on any wireless devices you are planning to use)
