Your welcome.
Your doing ok then. I have all the bills to pay myself!  :argh:
It's a bit scary jumping from O2s "unlimited usage" to IDnets limited. But when the connection actually works, it's worth the swap. Can you check how much you used last month with o2? Or guess what you downloaded and add 250mb per day for gaming? That would give you a clue.
I use to have a signature, then it all changed to chip and pin.

Im not sure about how much i downloaded, but i figure its worth a try (1 month contracts, why not?)

i also figure id rather be at a stage when i have good internet all month (peak and off peak) and have to watch it by the end of the month and download *enter random mod name here*the week after, than be able to download what ever i want but cant watch youtube videos at night and have 150+ ping on UK servers  :mad: :mad:

Any router suggestions for around £50 ?

Interesting comments....for me anyway  >:(
Many hammer all over the wall and believe that with each blow they hit the nail on the head.

Well i found a router, now need to find out how to install the thing before i make the move and get stuck without internet woundering how to install the dam thing :dunno:

It should be really simple. First thing is to not use any cd which came from it. Second thing is to look in the manual for the ip address you can use to access it in your web browser. It will probably be something like 192.168.1.1.

Once you've logged into it you just need to enter your Idnet username and password, check your wireless network is secure and then it is pretty much job done!
