    recomendations please

    right im after something decent that will allow me to connect my pc too my dreambox and also to enable card sharing

    i am after something wireless as i cant be arsed running wires round the house pc is upstairs dreambox is downstairs

    its got to be half decent as i dont want it losing connection on me but at the same time i could do with a reasonable price

    ideally id like some reviews from people who are using a system for the same purpose with little or no problems at all

    I have my main PC, modem and linksys wireless router upstairs. My dreambox in the living room is connected to the router via a wireless ethernet bridge.

    Linksys Wireless - G Ethernet Bridge on eBay, also Wireless Routers Access Points, Wireless Networking, Networking, Computing (end time 13-Nov-08 18:46:36 GMT)

    A wireless gaming adapter would also do the same job.

    You can also use those adapters that plug into your wall sockets and have ethernet connections in them, I've never used them and they're quite expensive but it's another option.
