brynjames Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: "ADSL and WiFi anyone?" 07-10-02, 15:20z  I seem to recall Pete was having problems with his setup. Did you get decent coverage in the end Pete? I may be moving from ISDN (Home Highway) to ADSL and I see that here in the UK Solwise have reduced the price for a combined ADSL modem/router/hub which includes a WiFi port. If I combine this with a laptop equiped with WiFi then perhaps I can do my forum surfing from down with the family instead of up in my FS den The path from Home Highway is not an easy one: 1. pay BT about £30 to disable and/or remove the Home Highway (necessary so that the line can be tested for suitability for ADSL), 2. buy and install ADSL modem and await activation or 3. pay BT £? to reconnect HH if the line test fails Lots of possibilities of long periods without any service and/or expense for unusable equipment. Anyone here done it? And all this just so I can download more scenery, planes, AI etc. etc. It never ends! Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
