[QUOTE="smoggy07, post: 853071, member: 298987"] If/when they confirm that the ethernet sockets are live, plug in an ethernet cable between the wall and the WAN socket on an el-cheapo virgin/cable wifi router in his room and set it up on channel 1, 6 or 11 (depending on what channel the home uses to avoid any clashes) You might have to disable DHCP on the inroom router to get it to work with their connection but I doubt it TBH if you have a spare wireless router of the virgin/cable flavour it shouldn't cause any problems if you went on ahead and plugged it in now [/QUOTE]
