Eircom Broadband Wireless Capabilities????

tvercetti · 2008-08-26 14:37:58

I recently got eircom home broadband and now want to connect it to a second computer in my home. I've considered running a network cable from the second computer to the router but I'm not keen on the work involved in doing so. Thats where wireless comes in. The router is a Netopia 2247nwg and I'm not sure what capabilities…

I recently got eircom home broadband and now want to connect it to a second computer in my home. I've considered running a network cable from the second computer to the router but I'm not keen on the work involved in doing so. Thats where wireless comes in. The router is a Netopia 2247nwg and I'm not sure what capabilities the second computer would have over a wireless connection to this router. I know there are different standards for speed and range. I presume the router I have supports "G" but i don't think the second computer would be capable of such activities as video streaming over this speed or would it? Would the router support a wireless adapter with the N standard??
