tomturd Posted June 3, 2005 Report Share Posted June 3, 2005 You need a wireless PCMCIA network card - one for a tenner here You also need a wireless router if you dont already have one. That should get you started, they should come with instructions, very simple, pretty much plug any play nowadays :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haz Posted June 3, 2005 Report Share Posted June 3, 2005 My dad and sster who boith use wireless internet both have these. Supposedly got 1500ft range, which is pretty immense, more than most people ever need. Seem fairly reliable to me. We use them with a Draytek 2600 VG, which is pretty good, pretty pricey though, I imagine you could get one for about £50 that will do the job just aswell. I would look at spending about £50 on a router and £10-20 on a card. Haz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
