[QUOTE="westhamessex, post: 760413, member: 376001"] hi all, 1 metre dish fixwed on 13 east, no incoming broadband, but have wireless vodafone dongle, 2 home plugs. originally i thought that, set up internet sharing through windows 7, receive wireless signal through payg vodafone dongle, connect ethernet cable out of dell pc to dm 500, and this would work. unfortunately dreambox control centre only supports routers,so my pc has an ip, dm500 has an ip, but dongle has no facility in dcc, to assign an ip adress, so only getting red line between dm box and pc, when it should be green. am i resigned to 2 options here, a hard wired bt infinity router( apparently up to 40mb the faster the better i thought) on a contract or i've heard of 3g wireless router, which dongle goes in, ( which would be the best one, as i've heard not all 3g routers are compatible with dreamboxes, and last but not least,would a wifi bridge work with just a dongle, i can't see it meself as we're back to the problem that dcc doesn't support anything apart from a router in the control center,i've had a look through the idiots guide on this and i'm assuming it can't be done unless its through a hard wired contract router or a wireless 3g one?? any help on this would be much appreciated, thanks..:) [/QUOTE]
