Q. I have a DSL Modem upstairs. It has four Ethernet ports. My computer is plugged into one of the Ethernet ports with an Ethernet cable. It connects to the Internet through the Modem.
But the problem is, my other computer, my Xbox 360, and my PlayStation 2 are downstairs. How do I get the Internet connection from the DSL Modem upstairs to work with my PC, 360, and PS2 downstairs? Do I need to buy a Wireless Router, put it downstairs, and have it wirelessly connect with the modem upstairs? I cannot run 3 Ethernet cables from downstairs to upstairs, mainly because it isn't very practical, but also because my computer room upstairs and my computer/game room downstairs are on opposite sides of the house. So how do I share the connection?

A. You will need a wireless router connected to the DSl modem. You will then need wireless adapters for the terminals downstairs. i don't know if PS2 and XBox 360 have USB 2.0 ports. To get the desired speed you'll want you'll need USB 2.0. USB 1 will work also but it will be slower. If your house encompasses more than 100 or so yds from the router you may also have connection problems. So if you live in a 25 room mansion you may need an amp to boost the signal (LOL). Seriously though, the next thing you want to do is security enable the wireless devices on your ntwk, otherwise, your neighbor may freeload off your signal and hog your bandwidth. You have to only allow the ip addresses you specify to have access to your wireless ntwk.
Where can I find some chic/modern geeky decorations for a gaming room?
Q. I was thinking about something in the lines of "Space Invaders" and "Asteroids" arcade games.
Pacman as well.
Looking for couches or sofas, those little puffs, wall decorations, anything really.
Preferably in chrome, leather, or anything in those lines. Would appreciate any help!
It's for my computer and console gaming room. Thanks!

A. Some of the best wall decorations are found on eBay in other categories. Get an old computer of some sort that does not work. They have them there, sold as non-working items. They aren't expensive. Take it apart partially and use "computer guts" in a frame as wall decor. It really does work well.
Pacman is dead-easy to make. Take a wooden circle and cut out the mouth. Sand and paint.
