    Hi

    most installers will also have a router and wireless card, so if you want to use the PC and laptop for browsing move the PC as far away as possible from the NTL point, like another room, in that case they should give you the Router and USB wireless card for the PC. The reason why they do that is so they do not need to drill the walls to get the cable to the other room.

    Regards

    Hi

    I'll say so. Be nice to the installer and if it looks like they won't give you 1 ask them, Say that you all use the laptop in the house in your own rooms.
