Hi guys, am about to move house and really would like to set up a wireless network but my understanding is limited to say the least! My main problem is that I'm moving to rented accomodation and have to cause minimal damage to the walls etc.

I was wondering if I just need to get the regular cable TV installation, plug in the cable modem and wireless router and then link that to the 2 PC's around the house (that way, the only damage is the main cable box on the wall). Or, do I have to run a primary Broadband link to a PC in order to wirelessly link it to the other PC? I'm hoping it's the former. I currently have a separate cable running around the house and into another room with the broadband link - something I cannot do in the new place.

As an aside, when I leave the place, I'll need to return it to the same condition as when I moved in - would NTL remove all their equipment? (for a fee of course). Cheers.
