Just a few question re: wireless broadband.

From what i can gather when i receive a welcome pack with bt i will get a cd rom to install it all, and a hub.

Is this everythign that i need, just follow the instructions on the cd rom, and attach a micro... to the phone line to split it so the phone can be used whilst the internet is on.

I'm going to be using it on a laptop, if that makes any difference.

Any input would be appreciated.

THANKS!!

Thats basically it.

Think about securing your wireless system. Its fairly straight forward to do but get the system working first. Securing it stops everyone else within range using your internet connection.

Get in touch if you have any problems

If your laptop isnt wireless you can also use a usb adapter, rather than a card, which is easier to use.
