Connecting To My Router
At present I connect my PC to my BT Router directly, ie with a cable, as the PC is quite old now and doesn't have a WiFi card. But I need to move the PC to another part of the house. What is the best way that I can still have the PC access the router ?
Put a wifi card into the PC, or can I get something that simply plugs into a spare USB socket, which can then use wifi to access the router ? It isn't really possible to move the router around the house and I am loath to open the PC up and install a wifi card ( although, if that is the only way, I suppose I could do it )

It is very easy to fit a PC card - takes about 10 minutes start to finish - and that would be my preferred method

Thanks...Perhaps opening it up and fitting a WiFi card might be the answer. I am still a bit nervous however...is fitting the card that easy ?
Will it obvious where this card should go ? Will I need to anything else, apart from just putting the card into the slot ( sorry for treating you like a free PC World !)
Actually I now remember that I did open it up about 3 years ago, and you are right, there was quite a lot of dust around in there.
