| 373430 | 2005-07-19 07:04:00 | Hi. I just got a new comoputer in my room, so now theres one in my room and the one I'm using now in the fmaily room. The family one is connected to jetstream. I am wondering how I can connect my other computer to the same adsl connection. I have a phone socket in my room and was wondering if buying a cheap ADSL modem from trademe, and then using it to connect my computer to the jetstream connection is a good idea? Beause I'm not too keen on buying a rooter and having cables going my my room to the other computer. |

Sometimes, it is cheaper than laying out those CAT5 cables. Try to keep metallic object away from the computers and router to avoid unnecessary interference and speed-lag if you intend to do so.
