    Wireless for IBB means wireless to your home. From the roof to your computer there's a cable. If your BT router is a wireless router then it's possible. If it's not then it's still possible (but you need to buy a wireless router).

    Ok not stupid...


    ok what I meant to say...want to connect my fixed wireless broadband via the big dirty red ethernet cable into a BT wireless Router - Model NUMBER BT Voyager 2110

    thinking there might be a problem as it is an ADSL router

    bought the router years ago and hopefully I don't have to spend 100 euro on netgear ****e

    yeah a DSL router wont work with your ethernet internet modem. You would need to get your self an ethernet wireless router.*

    *it may be possible but would involve a whole load of configuration on the BT voyager which i know nothing about

    Good price for one here:
