Again guys thanks for the help....I will try what you have suggested tomorrow and if all else fails go for a router, can you tell me if this one is suitable?

Also....does using a router affect the ability to play online games? I play a lot of BF2 and can do without any sort of hindrance in that respect. Cheers guys!
