I'm going to whip down & grab a new modem.

Our Ethernet light keeps flashing. Will this be cabling or the modem?

Do you reckon wireless is the wya to go?

Wireless is definatly the way to go if you have a laptop or more than one computer.

Well I've just been reading, guy at the shop's a dick...ethernet always flashes when passing info between computer & the WWW.

maybe I won't get one just yet, but our PPP light has been going out.

I'm just not sure what is going on as a heap of time it's like my net stalls. Say I'm reading this page & I click back to go back to the main list & nothing happens so I have to close down the site & open it again. PITA!

It does do it for some other websites as well so I don't think it's just OB.

It could be either cable or modem really. Has it just started doing it?

A wireless capable modem is really handy, especially if you have a laptop.
