Wireless networks
We have a wireless network that I use for my laptop and my son uses for his P.C. My daughter is about to buy a P.C too how easy will it be to connect her computer to the wireless network? It was easy with my lap top as it picked up the signal how does it work with a P.C.......forgive my ignorance on this subject!

If hers doesn't you can buy a card that goes inside the pc -

I am not recommending either of those products, or the store - they are simply examples of the sort of thing you need.
I would recommend the internal card - they are not hard to fit.

I am using a wireless network for 2 pc's in my house, the one i'm using for typing this reply is in the attic bed room, up 2 flights of stairs. I am connected using a USB adapter that simply plugs into one of my front usb ports. I generally alwasy get an excellent signal so i would reccommend this method.
