Hi,
I'm getting my Macbook (1.83GHz) next week and wanted to set up a wireless network at home before it arrived. I've got one computer that has a broadband connection. There's no DSL modem, its a line from the wall socket straight into the computer into something that was put into one of the PCI slots, I think its called an ethernet line?
All I need is a wireless router to set up the wireless network, right? I'm planning on using the Macbook for Bit torrent, transferring large files like videos to/from the macbook to my current desktop, so what router i.e brands, models, would you recommend? Is the Linksys 54G good, or will it be too slow for what I need? Also my laptop is going to be upstairs, and the main computer downstairs, so I need to make sure the range is good enough.
Thx
