Exclamation Upgrading to 50meg

I`m a bit of a noob with wireless internet tbh, so here goes.

I`m on 20meg (wired) with VM at the moment and upgrading to 50meg in October. I will be using the modem and wirless router coming supplied from VM when they install.
I also have a Samsung NC10 netbook, so i want to keep my internet connection wired to my desktop pc and use wirless from the same connection to my Sam NC10.
Can I do this?

Thanks Guys

Yes, the Router has 4 ethernet ports for connecting wired devices, as well as wireless functionality

Re: Upgrading to 50meg

WOW!!!!!!!! you guys are fast.....thats great thanks.
This will be my first time using wireless,so how do I make sure my connection is secure, as I`m wired at the moment using eset smart security 4 on vista 64Ultimate. I`ve googled and found that WPA(what ever this means) is the best option...or will the VM engineer do this for me?

Re: Upgrading to 50meg

You get a wireless setup CD with the router which helps you set it up quickly and simply with all security.
