For 3) we just don't want to use dialup anymore. We dont have tv, or use the line for phoning, just for net really. Want to keep all our costs down, and getting rid of the slower dialup (x2) seems to be the better solution and get the broadband shared out.
Port forwarding seems to be an issue that might be difficult - don't really know what is  ... Routing might be hard for me to do, cos I spent quite a few days on getting standard windows networking working.
We already have ntl cable broadband. And all the computers have standard network cards as they've all been able to use my connection on their computer at some point. |
lol - I don't know why the T&Cs say max 3 computers per connection, - I do know it is difficult to check
- and you can get 8 port routers.
sounds like you can lose the phoneline with no problem.
port forwarding is only an issue with stuff like webcams and some P2P apps, as far as I know ( don't use port forwarding, myself)
neither do i use my router to share over a network, but as far as I know it is fairly simple to set up.
If you don't mind the wires, an all ethernet setup will do the job, it sounds like you just need to get the router.
