I will have to faff around with my set up (at the moment, I have the modem into a wireless router for downstair, which then is linked by cat5 cable to a wireless router for upstairs - we have one hardwired PC in the office upstairs, two PCs upstairs linked by wireless, and two laptops downstairs linked by wireless; and an iPhone, iTouch, two Blackberrys, Wii, and BluRay player all networked).

I am sure it will be worth it.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

Had a great day with my Nephew (6) & Niece (9), tomorrow round two.

Next year I'm taking them both on holiday for a week, when I asked my sister about it she said good luck.

They will both be a year older, and have said they will love to go with me as I will spoil them.

Just finished setting them up with my two routers, and went through the activation steps (one of which made me download the hub software), so back online in less than 20 minutes.

As my main PC is upstairs, and the modem is downstairs, the nice CSR asked if I wanted transferred to Tech Support to set up (which I thought was a nice thought); I said "no thanks", as I work in IT.

Good service, VM (except for the mis-match between the leaflet and the hardware, but not too bothered about that)>
