Hi, wireless within your house is great because, as you say, there are less wires. You need to be sure, however, that the security settings are correct or it will be possible for others outside your house to pick up the signal. This may not be a very likely scenario, but it does happen. I suggest that you demand from eircom or whoever is supplying the wireless sy7stem that they set up the security settings for you. Take care, gerry ellis ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kathleen Doyle" <doylekay@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <vicsireland@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, January 25, 2007 9:41 PM Subject: [vicsireland] broadband wireless > Hi VICS members, > I am about to changeover from an Eircom connection to Broadband, and was > asked by the person I was dealing with in BT whether I wanted to purchase a > wireless connection or the regular wired connection.
