Yep. Dad didn't feel like running wires before we moved in (50+ year old house), so we bought a wireless setup instead.

Yep. For about 3 years now.

Both laptops and the last desktop I built are wireless. Only reason that desktop is wireless is because we didn't wanna run cat5 into that room. The other two desktops are wired though. Actually, cables were run to every room except where the wireless desktop is (we didn't think we'd need it when we ran the cables).

Yup, I'm piggybacking on my GF's highspeed. She lives downstairs. And I removed the IP's software from her comp, so if she unplugs the router in a fight, she's SOL too (doesn't know how to run the connection trhough windows).

I'm a thinker.

had plugs all over the house already, but finally decided to go wireless cause it was getting dirt cheap. $40 for a G bundle. Only laptop is wireless - no need for the desktop sitting right here next to the router.

Why do you have to be so sneaky about it if she's your gf ?

we are the non-wired people. Do you mean the non-wireless ? They are hiding their heads in shame.
