Am new to routers.. Anyway, the wife has got a laptop with wifi connectivity and from what I gather we need a wireless router to split our internet connection? But there are so many and because this is a Christmas present I DONT want to get the wrong one.
Our PC is an Athlon XP 1800 running Windows 2000. We connect to the internet using a motorola surfboard SB4100 connected via an ethernet cable to our PC. We are on Virgin Media, formerly a Telewest Blueyonder customer.
The wifes laptop is a HiGrade laptop running windows vista. It's all ready for wifi so shouldn't be any problems there.
She will probably only use the laptop for surfing the net so doesn't need a very fast connection (I don't really want to lose too much speed off the PC either as I download quite a bit)
Don't know if the speed thing is possible, just want to give her some sort of connectivity on her laptop. Willing to pay up to £50. Any suggestions as to what I need. As stated, it's a Christmas present so must work with our current configuration. TIA :)
