Excuse my ignorance, and I'm sure this gets asked every 5 minutes or so, but whatever ...
Best way to get broadband access in another place in the house from where it's hooked up to the main computer?
Would just buying another modem and setting my laptop up the same work? Or does it all have to go through the main computer?

Can't I connect the router up to the main computer with wires, and just have the wireless connection for the laptop? That would be ideal.

Yes. That is what I meant in my first post.
Could have worded it better though.

Seconded.
Excellent, will be getting one of those then.
Is E-buyer the best place to get it from, do you think?
And it doesn't matter which kind of modem you've got? We've got a USB one.

The router replaces your modem.
Right right right.

Make sure it says "router/modem" because you won't be able to use a USB modem with it anyway.
And E-buyer's a good place to shop.

That'll be fine, my friend was in a similar situation to you and he bought a router/modem as well.
You just whack your ADSL cable in the back and turn it on.
No problems
