That would do the job Nick.
Whilst wireless would work, wired is faster and much more secure.


Yes, wired for me as well J :y

Two cables from the HomeHub into MCE boxes and one into a Netgear 8 port ProSafe VPN and out from there into all the equipment I have connected up.

Main PC and all others in my office wired into router, with multi purpose wireless (psc) unit connected by usb to main pc, other office machines can connect to printer through main pc (although printing rarely required on these).

Other 2 PCs upstairs connect wirelessly to router and psc wireless printer (although one has own usb printer), and laptops & notebooks also connect wirelessly to router and psc wireless printer.

Network has been robust since it was set up, both wired and wireless.

Wired for devices that don't move, wireless for portable devices.

Wireless, including N devices, cannot keep up with FTTC connections
