    Right what with me father chaning the ISP every time someone rings up, He cant say no to people if they are nice to him, I have a few spare routers. The one i have now that Im using with computer is the Netopia 2247nwg. Anyways thats wirelss, which is handy when I use me twin brothers laptop to bridge the connection, but annoying cos he always wants to use the laptop, the fecking cheek of him.
    Anyways I have another crap wireless Netopia cayman 3347W lying around.
    What I was wondring is there any way to have the suse the apsre wirelless one as a bridge thingmebob and have it in me room.
    I'm not great at explaining things so if anyone can figure out what I just tried to say I would be greatful if ye could help.
    I presume I dont have to have the spare wireless hooked up tot he computer cos well, I dont know but it dont make sense, just like meself.

    well seany boy,you could try and confiure the channell and ssid settings on the spare router and see can you get it to recive signal from the main router if thats wot your gettin at,but if that fails look at mickoneils post in P eyes thread about the plug in adapters,and im sure iv seen thse type ting cheaper on ebay and they were also a plug adapter type so u wouldnt need extra socketsor extension cables,its best way forward :)

    Honeybadger is talking about a homeplug setup there...

    http://www.dabs.ie/productview.aspx?Quicklinx=53M6&SearchType=1&SearchTerms=homeplug&PageMode=3&SearchKey=All&SearchMode=All&NavigationKey=50909

    I have the set above.. They work a treat, have one in my bedroom that feeds a switch that feeds my server, pc and 360. And then I've another 3 around the house for the GF's pc n network printer n my XBMC setup.. Its way better than the wireless, speeds are always constant on it n it never drops out. Worth the investment I think, means no matter where in the house ur 360 is u'll be able to get a live connection(u can plug the second wireless router into it too to extend the wireless range around the house etc)
