Hi Andy,
You'll need to buy a wireless router. I have a Netgear which works well.
However, be sure it is wireless (the shop sold me the wrong router at first,
even though I bought it with the laptop and explained exactly what I
wanted)!
You will receive a cd with the necessary software to install.
In order to set up the network, you have to use the Ethernet cable to
connect the router to the computer. You will also need to log into a
webpage to set up your router, don't worry, you won't need to be on the
internet.
I think the installation wizard will take you directly to that page once
you've gone through the installation process, but if not the address will be
something like www.routerlogin.net
The username is normally something like admin, the password might be either
admin or password.
The actual setup should be fairly straightforward, I would recommend
enabling security when asked, which means you will be required to choose a
pass phrase.
When you've set up the router, unplug the Ethernet cable from your PC. If
your wireless switch is pushed to the right, the computer should detect the
new network. You'll be required to enter the pass phrase you just chose and
you should be away.
Hope this helps,
Edward

Hi all -
I'm ready to set up a wireless network now, but have little idea what to buy
to achieve it.
Can some kind soul suggest/recommend and explain what to do, with suitable
hardware.
I need to know how it all connects, so please, be big on detail for me, it
really will help.
Thanks -
Andy
