A. For this purpose you should opt for a Type IV modem/router that has built in wireless capability. There are quite a lot of such devices avaiable but prices are well above Rs. 1,500/- (Q4)

A. You can do that. You need to switch on the modem/router so that your home network is on. You do not have to connect to internet but you will still be able to transfer files, print document (with a networked printer), etc.

A. This may be difficult. You can opt for BSNL's Type IV modem which is for Rs. 1800/-. But you said you do not wish to buy BSNL's modem. Why is that? Check prices over eBay.

A. The typical unhindered range of a wireless router is 100 feet. But at home there are barriers such as walls and RF devices such as microwave ovens. So for practical purposes, install the modem to a central location in the house/flat so that you get the maximum out of the radius.

A. Choice of company is up to you. Both Netgear and Dlink are good choices. Linksys is even better but costlier. Siemens SL2-141 is also a good choice and I can recommend it.

A. Ethernet is available always. USB is also mostly available. Check the specs first. Once again Siemens SL2-141 is a good choice as it has USB, Ethernet and Wireless.

Theoratically you can connect 999 networked devices (computers, printers, wi-fi phones, etc.) to a router. But then a home wireless router will not be able to cope up with such a network. For practical purposes, a wireless router can support 50 devices.

I do not think that BSNL will provide the modem of your choice - they will provide the modem of their choice.

BSNL will most likely provide a wi-fi Type IV modem from UTStarCom. UTStarCom is not a bad company. The cost of the Type IV modem is advertised on the BSNL Tariff page. It is Rs. 1800/- for outright purchase which I think is a fair price.

The Netgear wi-fi modem DG834G is an excellent choice also.
