For Telewest, although I assume one cable modem will work for any cable internet.

Any links? Prefereably ebuyer as my work has an account with them.

Thanks, Mark

Do I?

I want it to work as a modem and allow at least 2 users to connect to it wirelessly?

Would prefer to have the one unit as apposed to 2.

Thanks

telewest is same as NTL and gives cable afaik. So you will need a wireless router for cable. I have a Belkin and never had any problem with it

Excellent thanks.

Had a look on ebuyer and found this one http://www.ebuyer.com:80/UK/product/103185/rb/24237380438

But it says in the specification that you need a modem
