Many thanks Danny and Another, I think I will either not bother to offer wifi (favourite option) or buy a 'dongle' for access, thanks again for all replies

Many thanks everyone for your replies, I will ask Orange to set up a separate user account for the wifi, thanks again

Hi Chancer Many thanks for your reply. Yes my account does have a password, but as soon as I log into the email, everything is accessible. Thanks for the info about second router, will look into it although I have no idea on how to do it! There are a couple of French computer repair shops close to our town they may be able to give advice on how to connect and what to get and maybe do the installation if I can't figure it out. Thanks again

Hi Chancer, Many thanks for your reply, I think I may have not explained my concerns clearly, being a computer novice, When I have visited B&B's and holiday cottages in the past that have offered their wifi on their orange live box, when I log onto the Orange site (my default) it automatically went to their account where I could see their emails and orange account details. This is where my concern lies, I know there is the option to 'log off' but it is a working account and I am on and off all day long, so didn't want to do that. There is also the question of Hadopi (not sure correct spelling) and how that impacts. Maybe I am being over cautious, but I don't want anyone to be able to access my account and emails which is why I am looking for info/advice on any options that are available, or not as the case may be. Thanks again

Hi Please accept my apologies if this has been covered before, but I am trying to find instructions on providing wifi to a holiday cottage. I have an Orange acc and from what I have found, it is not the best for privacy. Is there an 'idiots' guide to public wifi and risk or a system where wifi can be offered without putting my privacy at risk available, if not, has anyone used a wifi dongle (not sure if correct name) as a solution for guests to use. Unfortunately, I can't change from orange as it is my main contact for business etc. I will go to the orange shop later in the week to see what they can do, but in the meantime, any help or advice from fellow forum members would be much appreciated, thank you for taking the time to read my post!! Jessie

Many thanks for your quick response cooperlola, I think you have hit it on the head, will go and buy said staircase!! Ooops, just see Dave n olives reply..... will buy it and try it, then if needed, get a plinth Thanks again to all

Hi, I have a query regarding staircases that I can't seem to find an answer to, so was hoping someone here may know! I have seen 2 different measurements for the height of the staircase when built up = 'hauter sans socle 2.75m' and 'hauter avec socle 2.95m' I asked the chaps in the shops but they didn't seem to know what it meant either (ie is the overall height 2.95m). If anyone knows what it means, it would be much appreciated, many thanks in advance confused!!
