Dear Group,
Very soon I will be getting broadband in my home. I have a laptop which I
use downstairs and my brother has a Desktop PC which he uses upstairs. The
problem is that we will both want to use the broadband at the same time.
Therefore I have decided that it will be best if we get some wireless
networking going on so that we can both use it.
My question is what will i need? From the company (BT - United Kingdom) I
have just ordered the Box. This will sit in my brother's bedroom. I know
that we will both require wireless networking cards for our PC's. But what
confuses me is: Routers, Modems and Access points. What are each of them?
And which do I need?
Thanks for any one who can help. I'm good with computers, but when it comes
to networking I have no idea!
Thanks
Cassandra
