Hi ladies,

I'm with du - who don't support wireless!

Any suggestions on products or who I contact about this?

TIA

What Du mean is that they won't help you with any wifi related problems and if you buy the wrong router you may well have set up problems. So, either buy an Apple Airport Express or Extreme depending on whether you need wired connections as well as wifi - see http://store.apple.com/uk/browse/home/shop_mac/mac_accessories/airport_wireless?mco=OTY2ODQ4OQ Apple is literally plug everything in and go and does of course work with PC's as well as Apple. Or, if you prefer a cheaper Linksys, Belkin, Netgear or whatever just make very sure that it will work with your Du broadband and that the seller will assist you with setting it up if necessary - I mean the setup parameters which you may require like DNS servers and other stuff, not visit you to set up on site which they won't do. Virgin and istyle sell Apple wifi routers and Virgin will also sell the other manufacturers I expect.

Thanks ladies, Sounds like it's just me being a plum! Brain is mush at the end of a shocking month. I was hoping a "man who can" was going to turn up from du and press some sort of magic button :-) Carrefour for me straight after work. Thanks again!

just wanted to say...not sure what you are refering too. Lived in The Greens for 19 months (Golf Towers) and had a wireless router working fine at all times.....

What do you mean they don't support wireless? Just buy a wireless router like the Balkin wireless router at say careforre or something similar and you're set
