Homecall broadband

I am getting Homecall broadband installed next week, does anyone know what equipment is supplied, and is it easy to install?
We have two laptops, one upstairs and one downstairs,will it be possible to run both with the equipment supplied, or will I have to buy additional equipment?
Do they supply filters, and will I need to connect one to my Sky + box.
Thanks

i intsalled HomeCall for a client a few weeks ago. It came with the standard Frog USB modem, think its Alcatel that make it. It came with 2 microfilters in the box and you WILL need one for your sky+ box. If you need mopre filters they are avaiable on ebay as well as in many local shops like Dixons etc (you will ovbiously pay more in shops). Installation is interesting as they sent about 3 different letters with the username and password.
 
As for the two laptops, if you want to use them at different times then yes you can use the same equipment. If you want to use them at the same time you would be best to buy a broadband modem/router.

Thanks for taking the time to reply Onephat.I agree a modem/router is probably the best solution. I saw one on e-buyer for about 45 pounds.

Yeh i got myself a cheap one from ebuyer and its been brill. A router type setup would give you much more flexibility and the ability to upgrade. Its also a lot more secure to use a router over a usb modem.

Anyway enjoy broadband and if you need any help just ask.
