[QUOTE="2cvbloke, post: 812055, member: 199791"] Our wifi router (D-Link DIR-615, originally supplied by VirginMedia, old now but still great) is currently hooked up to the ADSL modem-router in a similar manner described in that Yahoo answer above, though not to add a 2nd wifi network, but to outshine the cheap & nasty "Technicolor" thing we got supplied with for the ADSL that barely reaches the living room, which is pretty much directly below it, so the wifi router is set to act as the wifi bridge, I could enable the wifi on the technicrapper too for a 2nd network, but, for the same network but at a slower speed, it's not worth it... :) I assume sky are still supplying Netgear hardware? If so, replace it with D-link, I wouldn't bother with a Netgear unless you were using it's 10/100 ports directly between it and the computer, otherwise it's a useless pile of plastic... :confused: [/QUOTE]
