Hi, Looking for some advice and a pointer towards
a product/source for some kit to achieve the following: I need to access my BT line remotely from a shed at the bottom of my garden where i intend to move me PC gear. I do not want to run another phone line or extension. Can I get a transmitter which plugs into the current BT access point and which will wirelsss Tx to a receiver which I can plug me modem into or do it via USB? Thanks Pete Pete |

Spent ages browsing about for similar items fruitlessly. Came up with a system using the house ringmain but you have to use the PC and Adapter on the same ring. Unfortunately my shed is sepperate so it was no use. This seems like it will do the trick. If anyone knows anything about this item I'd appreciate a comment or two. Thanks Pete |

I did nose around looking for a wireless modem for Plain Old Telephone Service (rather than broadband ADSL) but couldn't find one. Assuming you don't want to pay almost £30 per month for broadband, if such a thing exists, it would give you a noticably faster connection than the DECT option. Might be worth contacting one of the big suppliers, like Dabs.com for advice? -- ###################### ## PH, London ## ###################### |

I wanted to avoid that because of the hassle but even the wireless modem option is frought with likely problem - given the sittuation. Thanks for the assistance anyway. Pete |
