You need the software for the wireless network adapter
but you dont need to use the wanadoo ones, any wireless adapter will do.
I am currently using a belkin one which is a quarter of the price

James,

Not a stupid question, but are you running a PC or Apple laptop?

I run both, the Wanadoo(Orange) impementation of WPA follows the "broken" microsoft implementation so has problems. The early build Liveboxes didn't work at all, the new software works well if you set them to WEP only.

You can check the settings by going to http://configuration.adsl/ username:admin pw:admin.

No need to install the Wanadoo software.

Cheers,
Paul
