OK upstairs I have my ADSL wired router. I have 2 pc connected to it.
Downstairs I have my freeview box and PS2.
What wireless bits and bobs do I need to connect the LAN upstairs to the kit downstairs?
Thanks

if i remember correctly your after a wireless lan bridge.
AMD 64 3400, Geforce FX 5800, 2x 80GB HDD, ASUS K8V Deluxe, Kingston PC3200 1GB valueram.
So that goes upstairs, plugged into the LAN, then any downstairs equipment needs the relevant HW to connect to that?Originally Posted by sja360
What you need is a wireless access point plugged into your router. This gives you a wireless network to connect to. Then you need a wireless connection from the downstairs devices to that. If both the downstairs boxes have wired ethernet connections, then I suggest using another access point with both that and the upstairs one configured in wireless bridge mode with the downstairs boxes wired into the second AP. 2 Linksys WAP54Gs in wireless bridge mode would fit the bill nicely, with a hub plugged into the downstairs jobby.
