Just to conclude this thread .
I opted for a TP-Link wi fi adaptor and .........it didn't work . :-[
So I then went with Entwood's suggestion and bought a couple of TP-Link plug through powerline adaptors .
Plug in ,connect cables, press go button and problem solved. :y
I bow to TB's opinion on wi fi and although it works seamlessly on every connected device in the house it would not play ball with this HP tower unit .
Anyway , all good on Mount Olympia and no more tripping over cat 5 cables or chasing cats that want to chew them..
Many thanks for all your input and help.

Glad you have a stable connection :).  I've found the TP powerline ones to be one of the best based on how often they need resetting. Sorted.


I might have mentioned I detest wifi with a passion ;D, though am currently using it. Seeing as I'm laying in the bath ;D

He's having some difficulty getting in. Too many St. Ella's, maybe? :D

I was just commenting to Mrs TB a couple of days ago how little I have consumed since Christmas.  I've had to throw away some, as it went significantly out of date.

I'm sat here with a pint....   ...of water. Gay, I know.

Just so happens my cheapish Wavlink 300mbps arrived yesterday which I set up via Ethernet cable as an Access Point. Really impressed as it is sharing a 5 way splitter. Can now hide at bottom of garden.

I fitted a (legal) point to point wifi link between 2 of bros shops about 15 years ago.  The manufacturer reckons on 16km range :o
