I recently used this cheap and cheerful one on my media pc before I finally sorted out ethernet for it.

Worked perfectly in conjuction with a speedtouch 585v6 in a large house, and this included streaming hd content from a network attached storage device

I always use my local postie to send stuff if at all possible as he's well known as a scooby owner.....he posts on here as "Ronjeramy"

I always try and give him the business rather than the big post office in town or DHL / couriers etc

I guess this means I can drop the parcel off with him on Tuesday as It's a Bank Holiday.......Sorry.

Is this OK ?

Cheers

Hi Nat21

Have this one one me

it was sat at the back of a cupboard in the kitchen where we keep all the boxes of the cameras, phones etc in case we need to send them back if they break. To be honest I'd forgotten it was there and it would still be there today if you weren't using it LOL

The other thing is that I feel guilty telling you I would post it on Tuesday but due to a **** up over the kids being on half term it didn't get sent until Thursday

Glad it works

Cheers


Shaun

PS do you know anything about I-Pods

Sorted out the i-pod tonight

I will come and haunt you if I need a new watch LOL

The German divers watch (long live "Buster" Crabb) is something I'd rather have than a Tag LOL
