I moved house. ISP said it will take up to 3 weeks till I get net back on the same landline number. Today is end of week 2... so not much point of this post now, but what the heck.

There is some very close unsecured router that I can connect to for the mean time on the laptop and mobile. (Cheeky cheeky. I will go and find the owner when I get the net back because I can even access their router settings.)

I could use a crossover cable and link up laptop to desktop and use the lappys wireless, right? But I'd have to go all the way into town, and with 1 week left it isn't worth it now.

I have a Samsung S5560. Connection USB. There is an option in the software to use the to get internet access via the mobiles network provider but I don't want that.
