Imagine Me – best way to avoid this is to get a router-modem all in one apparently. Let me know how you get on.

That's the kind of set up I have now too, Jo, except that my "desktop" is now one of the three laptops in the house. We don't have a desktop any more.

Obviously I use wifi.

Did you know wizards are death on technology, read Harry Dresden. Maybe that's yer problem.

We have, in the past, (almost always) found that we've had to do the initial setup of the wifi router with cables connected, but we've always been able to disconnect the cables once everything's working.
