    Hi guys first posting on here, can anyone tell me what i need to set up a wireless connection please?
    Pc in living room just now but im being sent out of here due to the other half deciding its unsightly having a pc in here lol,
    Please keep it simple and links would be handy too, oh yeah and one more thing, i have a 1mb connection and will be going onto a 2 mb connection soon so whatever needs to be compatible both ways ( not sure if that makes any difference)
    Thanks in advance guys

    You connect the router to your modem via the ethernet connection, and then the PC with the wireless NIC will connect to the wireless network, allowing internet access.

    Nice dude, DLINK makes some great products, I'd wait for others comments on this but I'd say buy it.
