I have a router in my room(main router DSL). i also have a router in my sitting room off of the main router that is connected to the telephone line. im now trying to do the same set up in another house beside me but i just dont know what router to buy . i bought one but it needed to be plugged into the Phone line. was a DSL router . i dont want that. i dont know the name of them. I dont want to go breaking them either so that they by pass the DSL. Its a tight buget. Im not experienced with Routers and for another person who doesnt want to wast over €60. Just plug in and play type of router . if ye get me

Sounds like your looking to extend your wireless network to another house? if so what to need is a wireless "access point" or "base station".

You might need to configure it when you get it with the details of your existing router. This is called bridging, try to find someone with a bit of knowledge in PC World and ask them, this will probably be hard!

Get something with the name, Linksys or netgear and these are usually pretty reliable and should only cost you about 50 lids. Post back on here when you get the device if you get stuck setting it up.

I am now looking to buy another one of these to attach on. Just not this one with the price tag.

Looks like your all set then, see what they have in PC World in the way of Wireless Access points, not sure if they stock them. Online would be way cheaper if you were willing to wait a few days. Something similar to what you already have here
