Landline free broadband (multi users)

dabbler2004 · 2007-09-15 15:07:38

A girl at work is moving to Dublin for college and is wondering if she can get a broadband service that will allow her and her three housemates to share the connection at the same time? Will their laptops pick up on the wireless connection or will some other equipment be needed? Any suggestions welcome, thanks.
