You might as well just get the new phone point put in upstairs. Can't really see the point in having a wireless network if it's just for your PC. Might be different if you had a laptop as well that you wanted to use all over the house

Kerry is your laptop and pc on a shared account as I'm getting a laptop soon and want to use it with my wireless access point that shares the same modem as my wired pc.

Anyone know how I'd go about setting this up or do I just have to plug in the wireless access point then get the laptop to respond to it and the internet will sort itself out?

yes its on shared BT broadband with a wireless router

the pc is on an ethernet cable into a network card and the laptop is wireless

we got a cd with the router from BT and that told you how to set it all up and then we was away

hope that makes sense as i know jack shit about computers
