receiver unit in the village. I can also pick up a wireless signal from the same aerial. I want to set up an additional wireless signakl in my house. What sort of router do I need to get? I assume that I would plug this into my LAN switch which is the first part of my wired network after the pos box. Any answers would be gratefully received

You can, in most cases, connect a Wireless router to your POS and let your provider know the MAC address of the device and then go from there for setting up your network. If you don't wish to replace your current router you can connect the wireless router to the current LAN router and establish a wireless network from there. Make sure you set up WEP or WPA security on your Wireless network to keep other people from hacking or using it without your knowledge. This is normally the only requirement Service Providers place users establishing a wireless network.
