    I assume what you are looking for is a Wireless Router.

    If you have no specific requirements I would go for the cheapest one that supports at least 802.11g and WPA2 (nearly everything does now anyway). If you search ebay for wireless router you will find some under €30.

    Example - "TENDA DSL 150MBPS WIRELESS LITE-N 4 PORT AP / ROUTER" - seems to do everything and is €21.55 + shipping. (Don't have any experience with this specific model - I just pulled it off the web - but would be prepared to buy something like this if I needed to replace my current unit.)

    Would be interested to know what Wireless routers anyone else here has bought recently.
