Just finalising my broadband with PLus net.. do I need a wireless kit which means I can browse anywhere in the house ?
sounds great BUT
1. a lot more expensive
2. someone told me it slowed everything down too much..
if I DON`T need it, then do I need a USB modem router or a 4 port router ?
I know someone will tell me what to do ! :hearty

Depends whether you want to have the other computers on the WWW. If so, your best just getting the free USB modem off Plus.Net, and buying a Linksys Wireless Router off Dabs.com

It doesn't slow anything down, it just means you share the bandwidth. As long as eveyone isn't download DVD's at once, their isn't a problem.
