 AOL broadband DSL connection - Paul Robinson
Please forgive the possibly dumb questions, but until recently all my broadband experience has been with cable. Currently I'm connected (not wirelessly) via a BT line. AOL sent a Speedtouch 585 modem router and a broadband installation CD - I followed the step by step intructions and (tempting fate) it has all worked fine. My questions are:

1 - If I buy a new computer with AOL software pre installed, if I just connect the ethernet cable to the modem router, will it find the broadband?

2 - If the modem router ever packs up, what is the process for installing a new one?

Thanks!
