nnillionaire, you started this thread just in time because I'm getting a simple [?] network for my home laptop and desktop PCs. Sales people in stores were little help, the web sites of hardware vendors give inadequate explanations and I'm still not quite sure how to proceed. I think I need a cable modem [have not subscribed yet], an ap/router with wired and wireless capability, a NIC for the desktop and a PCMCIA card for the laptop. Which should be set up first, the home network or the cable broadband connection? I'm going to pursue this elsewhere, but will return here and report when it all works. Oh yes, AT&T cable wants to assign an IP to each networked PC for an extra %5 a month. This site says that's not a good idea homenethelp.com Since I'm only going to use one computer for internet access at a time, I'll resist the extra IP. Gottfried
