If it doesn't have a RJ45 modem port just connect it to the computer via a standard RJ45 port, on one of the standar outlets.

Make sure you use WPA security and MAC filtering on the wireless.

If you need it I can make a quick mockup in paint and post it.
ok i duno what the jack is called,

the modem goes into a little box that says bt adsl mf50 on it,

its a splitter that plugs into the regular phone line and has one regular phone jack on it and one line out that just says dsl on it, its a smaller jack then the phones one, its not an rj45

my problem is i want the wireless and home computer to both work on the net seperatly, with or without the house pc being on, think this might only work if i just replace the modem on the home pc with a wireless one. and explane it away

anyone know any good routers for this?? theres loads on ebay and i susspect almost any of them will do but i figured id ask
