    G'day,

    My mother in law's house has had Eircom BB for about 2 years now, and she pays the bill religiously.

    About 8 months ago there was a bit of rennovation work done, and all the BB equipment was lost i.e. box, cables etc.

    What do I need to get to get set up again? Do I have to get a specific Eircom box?

    Might as well make use of it whilst its being paid for!

    basically:

    a router for wireless network

    or a cable to connect to a PC if you want hard-wiring

    a fliter for the phone line

    No, any ADSL Modem/Router will work, just plug it in.

    you of course will need to configure the modem with the Eircom username and password which are usually

    eircom and broadband1
