Hello,

I've 4 pc's which are all next to eachother, a wireless adsl modem and one wireless USB receiver. How do I connect to the modem with the USB device and share the connection with the others (ie dont want to have a wireless device on each!). All PC's have a wired ethernet port.

Thanks

A cheap hub and a ethernet-to-wireless bridge should do the job. Just plug the PCs into the hub, then connect the hub to the bridge and link the bridge to the wireless access point.

I don't have a wireless network (I use all ethernet) so I can give no guarantees of success. I'm just telling you what i know. Smile
