[access-uk] Another "wireless connection" query

Currently my main BT socket is in a room downstairs at one end of the 
house with several additional extension sockets in upstairs rooms 
mainly at the opposite end of the house.   It is one of the latter 
which I use for dial up connections to both of my computers.    If 
switching to broadband I would be quite happpy to have cable 
connections from a router connected to the extension socket but I 
have been told several times that it is unwise to use an extension 
socket for the purpose.  

Reading the current thread led me to consider the possibility of 
having the router etc. downstairs and connecting both computers to it 
wirelessly.  However I was a little concerned by the following 
sentence in one of George´s messages - 

"Many reasons, not least being that wireless can occasionally suffer 
breakdown due to all manner of reasons."  

I wonder whether relying entirely on wireless connection to a router 
at the other end of the house could lead me to wish that I was back 
on dial up!  

Any advice would be much appreciated.
