In my day I would have known the thread count of their bed sheets as well as their computer setup. :p :rotfl:

Well, I don't make a habit of digging in the backs of closets were these things are kept! :rotfl:

Anyway thanks for the very prompt and numerous replies. The two computers that are in the house are able to get on the web simultaneously so I assume that there must be an existing router or a switch but not a hub (did I get that right?). In which case I guess it's a simple case of replacing the existing router with the wireless one or putting it between the modem and the switch.

That's the way to do it. Liveing where I do it's just modem and Linksys wireless G broadband router. I have two DT hard wired and two laptops wireless with a third cable available. No switch.

Wish you good luck. It should go easy. Almost forgot.For desktop you'll need wireless card also. Unless the mobo has wireless built in.
