Thanks for all the replies. Just to let you know that I have opted for the linksys wag54g modem router and wmp54g pci card. Chosen mainly as I think that 3 people suggested linksys. These are on offer at comet for a combined price of £99.99 inc free delivery if you can wait 10 days. I have paid to get a faster delivery and ended up buying a laptop as well with built in wireless lan for total portability around the home/ garden. The whole exercise has cost more than intended but I have got myself an early Xmas toy and I have been thinking about adding a DVD burner to my comp for some time now but have got one in the laptop instead now. Thanks again. Legin
