What ISP do you use, and what router did they give you?
With regards to your printer, you could get a wireless printer server such as http://www.ebuyer.com/product/150600, or setup your computer to do it. Will the other computer's connecting to it be Windows or Linux (or Mac)? If they're just Linux, you could maybe use CUPS (does it support wireless printing?), but if some of the clients are using Windows you could use SAMBA. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba for help. Thanks. - -- Many thanks Harry Rickards (a.k.a l33tmyst) - -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.1 GAT/GCM/GCS/GCC/GIT/GM d? s: a?
