If email be the food of love, then we're going to need wireless

[china_shop]

Hey everyone! So, okay, I currently have a cable modem, a desktop PC, and very little technological knowledge. However, I am planning for there to be wireless at my house for get/together '07!

So. Useful information you can give me:

1. Do you have a router you could/are willing to bring? (If not, I'm going to try to borrow/rent one.)

2. Are you bringing a wireless-enabled laptop? i.e. How many connections do I need to cater for? Please comment even if the answer is no, so I can get a full headcount. Thanks!


Eeeeeeee! We're at T minus one month and one day! Get your party shoes ready!

WOOO!

I am of no help with ANYTHING, except that I will SEE YOU THERE!

HEE! ♥

Does that mean no laptop, either?

[jamethiel]

I DO NOT HAVE ONE. It is tragic.

AND I'm choosing to come over to NZ rather than buy one. Something's screwed up with my priorities, I think.

Heh. Mine is 13 years old and it-- well, it still boots up? But other than that, not so much.

(Those are GOOD priorities! Shiny! \o/)

G'night! :-)

I still use a desktop (how retro of me!), so that's a no :)

[china_shop]

Me too! *g*

Thanks for sayin'. :-)

Still laptopless...But definitely coming.

[china_shop]

Cool. Good to know. Thanks. And YAYAY! :-)

I'm bringing my laptop :)

[china_shop]

Cool. Good to know. Thanks. :-)

I'll probably be bringing my laptop, which is wireless-enabled. :)

[china_shop]

Good to know. Thanks!

Eeee, one month! :-)

If no one else can bring one, I *may* be able to bring our router, but I'd just have to ask my dad first if disconnecting it would be bad (it's not used all the time here, but I'm not sure if it's Part of the Set Up officially or not).

And I should be bringing a wireless-enabled laptop, unless it wimps out on me again like it did last year. Heh.

EEEEEEEEEEE ONE MONTH AND A DAY! *twirls you*

[china_shop]

Good to know, thanks. Do you know how many connections it allows? There's one I can probably borrow in Wellington, but it's small and not very fast, and the specs only say that it allows "multiple" connections, so we can't figure out if that means 4 or 15. :-P

ONE MONTH!!!!!!!! God, I have to tidy! /o\

I, um. Am totally clueless? I'll try to find out. I suspect digging out the user manual will be more informative than asking, so I'll get back to you when I can.

I was thinking about bringing my wireless laptop.
