Well, The 2091 is currently being used full time for the laptop, and i
was going to use the 220v upstairs. But im now assuming 1 line = 1
router........?

Its just a simple home broadband, with 2 computers needing to use it.

The set up so far is:

BT linebox & Microfilter with the DSL cable to the Router, then Laptop
connected wireless to the router.

I'l try with the 2091 router upstairs and see if anything different
happens, as its wireless it wont matter where its plugged in!

Cheers for your time Gary! Im sure you have better things to be doing
than this!!!! lol But your help is very much appreciated!

Who is your ISP? What is the nature of the network you're connecting
to? Is
it a large LAN or WAN like at some school? Or is this a home broadband

connection?
