  1. MegaUpload has been shut down by the FBI and some of its workers have been arrested
  2. I'd agree with Risto here. Connect it up to the phone line (probably require a splitter). Then keep the computer in the office connected via cable (or buy a USB Wi-Fi adapter and go wireless) and connect the laptop to the wireless. Pretty much how things run in my house, all wireless enabled devices are connected to the router, PC upstairs has a USB Wi-Fi adapter and the Xbox and Sky box downstairs are plugged into the router. Benefit of that is, whilst streaming content offline, it's a lot more stable over a cable than it is over wireless.

    Bringing me on to my next point. Being a student, me and my girlfriend are cheap (or like to spending low) and we have been on free broadband with Sky now for the past two years. But today, they finally sent us a letter saying that we've been upgraded to unlimited broadband (Always my wish, never my girlfriends) Because we have gone over the (rather low) download limit of 2GB twice within a six month period. She'll have a fit when she gets in, but at £7.50 a month for truly unlimited downloads and up to 20MB speeds, I'd give her £90 now and pay the year outright. Finally not limited to what I download, torrents uploaded here, stream content from Sky Anytime+ service. Get in
  3. Sky are genuinely unlimited. I went through 750GB a month without one hint of throttling.
  5. Anonymous have apparently hit back big style with the news of Megaupload.

    Oh no, they're going to drop an atomic bomb on the Internet.
  8. Just targeting the owners of the copyright and the senators (or whatever they're called) who still support SOPA it seems.

    Brown adds that “more is coming” and
    Anonymous-aligned hacktivists are pursuing a
    joint effort with others to “damage campaign
    raising abilities of remaining Democrats who
    support SOPA.”

    Although many members of Congress have just
    this week changed their stance on the
    controversial Stop Online Piracy Act, or SOPA,
    the raid on Megaupload Thursday proved that
    the feds don’ t need SOPA or its sister legislation,
    PIPA, in order to pose a blow to the Web.
  9. If they take down MU, I won't be surprised to see RS and MF follow. The war on illegal downloads is booming.

    I would be surprised. Megaupload was always a shifty site. MediaFire and RapidShare are different, they both seem to operate in a much more professional way. Besides, Megaupload weren't only shut down for sharing, not just hosting, illegal files. There are many other charges involved.
  11. thanks everyone for your input regarding the WiFi / WLAN / internet problem I'm trying to solve.

    I read all your ideas carefully, and spent days checking stuff online, like routers, wireless access points and the like.
    as I'm not too sure the wireless internet thing will work well enough here -- as this is an old house with very thick walls and I'm two floors above the office -- I'm now going for a router (which gets the DSL modem cable as input and has 5 LAN ports for output) and connecting both office computer and my notebook physically with LAN cables to the router. Order is sent, wasn't too much money spent after all. Here's to hope my limited understanding of your shared knowledge will lead to a positive ending in this mystery of online connection thanks again
  12. Good luck with it and may you enjoy the beautiful Internet lying from your bed or wherever you wish I really love to browse the net from wherever I want in my house!
