Why can't she run a long telephone cord? Just curious only because I've had a phone cord circling three long walls of a room to get to a DSL modem for well over a year, and I really can't complain about the result. Prior to the DSL I used the same phone cord for dial-up, and that worked fine as well. Considering how much cabling is used just to get the phone connection to the condo, I don't see why a long phone cord couldn't be used as long as routing it from the phone jack to its destination isn't a problem.

Ok I have a friend that's going to purchase a computer with the works. Where she want to put the computer there's no phone jack. She said that the telephone company won't put one there because of the rules of the people who own the condos. So she was told that she couldn't run a long telephone cord from the telephone jack in another room to where she wants the computer. So she brought up connecting her computer up wirelessly. I told her far as I no you can't just hook one computer up wirelessly because it has to be wired. So my question to the list is can you hook just 1 computer up wirelessly? Is it possible? Please help me out with this.
