Yes David is right, I have home networking as I have two computers and it consists of a modem and netgear USB adapter but the modem also has ports for wired connection which we use as the netgear tends to slow down the connection however when my son comes home with his notebook he connects to the net using the netgear as it's more convenient.


The package came with the disk to run and gives the option to connect with the wire or the usb so I ran the wire option on our computers and the usb option on my sons notebook.


I have a very fast connection 8,000kbs so the usb connection isn't slowed down much anyway but if you have a slow connection I suggest you stick to the wired option.


Hope this helps

Reply:dont order it as they will charge you a premium. you can do that yourself at way cheaper with a wireless router and adapters. 80% the computers connect to eachother automatically (wiht allowed firewall)

It probably consists of a wireless router (possibly with a built in DSL modem) and one or two USB wireless adaptors (and probably cost about £50).





Instructions should be in the box.
Reply:Get a Linksys WRT54G Wireless-G Broadband Router. It has step-by-step instructions on how to setup your network. Allows you to share your cable/DSL internet connections and has 4 ethernet ports as well as the wireless access. They also have great tech support in case you have trouble. The cost is around $60 at places like Best Buy or Office Depot. Hope this helps.
