how far away is the other room ?

Only a few inches - haven't actually moved the PC; just the leads.

If you have a root around the forum, there is plenty of advice on how to set it all up.

OK, I'll do that. I just needed to know that I wasn't trying to achieve the impossible first.

Boy, that makes me nervous. Do you mean my PC firewall - Zone Alarm? I note there is already a firewall in the router. Maybe some sort of conflict?
I have my ancient Windows 98 PC in the garden chalet and it would be useful to get that attached too. Can't upgrade that one to XP; it's too old and also I use it to drive an excellent NEC laser for which NEC never wrote an XP driver. Can anyone recommend a W98 adapter?
Apologies to Mr Moderator for initially posting to an inappropriate forum, and thanks to all trying to help. You've made me happy and unhappy - happy that what I want to do is achievable and I haven't wasted my dosh; unhappy that I can't at present achieve it for some reason.
