Ta Ronni, That part might be OK. It’s getting it on the internet that I need first. Google searches seem to show that I need an Ethernet Bridge. I might make a trip to Dick Smith tomorrow …. AARRRRRGGGHHH ! I checked with Harvey Norman, JB Hifi and Macs 4 Us with no luck. Except that HN wanted to sell me a twin pack ethernet power plug kit of some sort for $150.00 Looks like the AE could be worth trying first - I will borrow it from my step daughter if possible.
