cheeseman   10 #1 Posted January 8, 2010 I currently use a bt voyger modem but I'm getting tired of all the wires running eveywhere,I was wondering if I bought a wireless router eg. Belkin, would this replace my current modem? Any advice welcome I don't really have a clue how these things work Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

scarab   10 #3 Posted January 8, 2010 If you are on cable you would probably have to connect the router to the modem but if your broadband comes down the normal telephone line (You mention BT Internet so I presume they are you BB provider) you should be OK, the router will plug into an ADSL filter which in turn will plug into your telephone line.

gillybear   10 #6 Posted January 10, 2010 Be aware you can buy a wireless router without a modem built in.  If you're on BTinternet (now BTYahoo) then i'd try contacting them and seeing if they'll send you a HomeHub. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
