    Hey guys i'm just wondering is it possible to connect Irish broadband ripwave broadband in a box thing to a wireless router? So that like laptops can use the connection? It says it connects to an ethernet port on a pc so I'd assume you can? I'm not sure! Any help would be great thanks!

    Yes, just plug the ethernet connection from the Ripwave box into any router, preferably one described as just being a broadband router, i.e. not integrated ADSL modem or the like.

    They all use web based interfaces, so anything that runs a web browser will do.
