SO, it is a wireless router or not - do you want to share the internet or what do you want to do with your router

Hi,

Not sure what the double phone socket you are talking about is for, I don't think it is needed. You should be able to connect the STB straight to the WAN connector on the back of the router. Alternatively connect the cable that goes to your PC to the WAN connector on the router.

I agree with robbo71, all you need to do is that put the cable onto ur router which goes from your PC - interent one. And then configure ur settings on the computers
