Go wireless.

I have a BT Homehub and can connect a mates laptop 3 houses away.

Plus I can connect My pc anyware in the house.

Have not had one problem with it yet.

On the news the other week it said that homehub's use wep encryption to be more compatible with customers equipment.

If it is true it means that anyone else who wants to connect to your network/broadband/PC can if they really want too.

I could set a 40 key encription code. which would make it a lot harder.

People have tried to connect to my home hub already and couldnt unless I set it up for them. neighbours eigh.:rolleyes::D
