Laura etal,
Southwestern Bell (SBC) will assist with the installation of the router
if you are visually impaired.
I pay $29 per month for the internet connection and we have three
computers on it. SBC currently has a deal where the equipment is
something like $50, not all bad.
JAWS seems happy with most of the arrangement. I am using JAWS 5.0.6
whatever came in the installation CD, XP Home and Microsoft Outlook.
CYS...

Laura--
Okay, we have road runner cable internet access as our ISP and initially
I had Time Warner (phonetically spelled) network all three PC's in our
home wirelessly. The problem was that we paid a $79.99 monthly service
fee for all three of the PC's along with the wireless network they
installed. I spoke to a friend though, who is Microsoft Certified and
he informed me he would be able to network the house with all three
PC's, wirelessly, and the total amount would be less than what you would
pay road runner in four months. Well, I told him I wanted only the best
simply because I am so dependant on the PC. We went and purchased all
of the stuff at
CompUSA and it's total was a little less than $250.00, and we were able
to get a $40.00 mail in rebate with it too. Well, now all three PC's
have access to the internet, we have a router as our firewall, and it is
simply fantastic. My friend, who is Microsoft Certified, arranged it so
that the newest PC is the one who can send and extract items and
software to and from the other PC's and the others are merely drones. I
would only imagine the only reason you would need the MS Certified
person there to install the wireless network for you is to ensure that
one of the PC's will be the master and the others will be drones. To
reiterate, however, wireless networking is simply the way to go...
Best Wishes,
