Anyone help me with some very basic questions? I've just bought a new PC, but there is no wireless card installed. I bought a Belkin F5D7230uk4 Wireless G Router, which connects to ethernet ADSL/Cable modem. Unfortunately I am having to take it back to the retailer as the installation/manual CDs are missing. Given that I have read the threads regarding this particular piece of kit, I intend to try a different model. Any suggestions. I have NTL 10mbps broadband through the TV set top box. Are there any other pieces of kit that I need, I wish to connect two pcs and a laptop (the laptop has a wireless network card). Do I need a network card for the No 1 PC as well as the second one? Need to ket this info straight before I go shopping!
Thanks.
