If anyone can help.. and poss save me a few quid.
We moved from aol to Tiscali recently and were asked if we want wireless. It was only £10 more than 'wire and plugs' but dp said no need to bother. Well we are both self employed, both use the pc in the evenings, and on Thursday afternoon my mum minds the kids so if I've no work on I work from home and would love to be able to do email etc in peace upstairs.
I know a lady with an IT supplies company and asked her how much for me to go wireless and she quoted me over £80 which I can't justify.
Have just noticed lots of people selling wireless routers on ebay and they seem to go for pennies.
Could I get one of these? Do I need any technical knowledge/software to wireless enable pc (laptop already enabled by its previous owner) or anything else I need to know? Or would it be better sense (I hope not £££) to get one of this woman and pay her the £30 for installation?
Any help or advice gratefully received. DP and I were nearly stabbing each other to get turns on the internet when doing our tax returns the other week
