Roadrunner Question...
and no prizes for making the first Wylie Coyote reference...

I just got Roadrunner, and I'm told that it's possible to install a wireless router so that I can log on anywhere in the house.

True? Difficult? Good place to go for directions? The installer was a slacker who couldn't wait to get out of the house -- although it was after 6:00 p.m. on a Saturday so I can't really blame him.

Thanks for your help and your Looney Tunes references.

1. Yes it is possible. I didn't set it up though, so don't ask me how.

2. We have that.

The notebooks are both wireless. Roadrunner is aware that people do this the only thing that they say is they won't help you fix it if there is a problem since it isn't their equipment. My son did it and it wasn't difficult but I don't know how. Try the DU computer forum.

3. Lots of instructions on the web, but...
I've always liked the way How Stuff Works explains things:
