Thanks for all the reply's guys. Sorry its taken me a day to get back, but my mac, its up in the loft, - ladders to get down, lights on, sockets on, macs to start up! This is why I need to hard wire my network downstairs for better access.
Dan mentioned a 'wireless' router, is that the type with the little ariels on. Are they for 'airport card' connection only, or do they connect wires as well? I want to be able to play games on-line and I didn't think a 'wireless' connection would be good enough (MOHAA). Steve mentioned that some routers won't see my old laser printer. Could I plug my 'hub' into the router and run it off that, or will I still have a problems? Final question. Were getting a new computer for xmas and I don't know which to get, a mini mac (G4)(£300/$450), or a imac 17" screen, combo drive (£900/$1350). Is it worth the difference in price? I need to make a decision soon as my wife has spotted a Dell at £350/$500, but I have no interest at all in PC's. Many thanks to, Dan, Grethel, Joe, Steve & Jeff, always reliable for the best information. regards, Ian B (UK) UMAX C500, G3 P-Jolt320, 112mbRAM, OS9.1, 2GbHD, 2 x 9GbExtHD, Astra610S, LaserWriter 4/600, 600KCableModem - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
