    nothing, just tell your PCs/laptops to pick up the signal

    Depends on the router. Some want a computer/laptop attached to it to start it up while some can do it wirelessly but you'll need to install it on a PC of some sort. With laptops, you never need to because the wireless hardware built-in should work with any wireless router.

    Since when do routers need anything connected to them to boot them? We have never come accross this in all the routers we have had.

    Seams strange, all the routers we have seam to have to be rebooted every couple of weeks, maybe they can't stand being left on 24/7 or something.

    BT Voyagers need one to start them up first time, after that the reset buttons comes in handy Belkin Networks seem to like staying on 24/7, mine's always on and doesn't reset itself. But then again, it is on a very breezy, thin surface so it's not exactly going to heat up too easily
