[access-uk] URGENT advice required regarding wireless and wired network connections with BT broadband

Hi all,

As of Friday both my wife and myself are going broadband with BT.

I have just discovered a problem with my wife's Toshiba laptop computer, as she has the option in network connections to create a LAN high speed internet connection. When I put the cursor on Local Area Network it says something about Intel NTR Pro V net.

The problem is that on my Acer machine I have the option to create a wireless network however going by the information I have coppied above it looks as if my wife does not have that option.

My question is considering that the broadband is being fitted on Friday, do I need to go out and purchase a wireless network card for my wife's machine so that we can both be connected wirelessly, or considering that we both have laptops, is it worth going ahead and connecting them together with a wired network as my Acer Laptop has both options.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance.
