I'm thinking about seting up a wireless network in my home. This computer is directly linked (via usb cable) to a netgear wireless router. So far the only device that connects via Wifi is my nitendo DS (and soon the Wii :2thumbsup: ). But suppose i want another computer to access the internet, do i just use the netgear wireless USB pen adapter thing? or do i need 2(one for this comp and one for the other?) or some other device?
It would be helpful to know the model and protocol of your router (it's probably a G-router, but one never knows). In the absence of other info, here's an answer that is probably correct: If you have an active wireless router already in place, a new device should only need a wireless access card to connect. That can be a USB adapter, an internal connector, a PCMIA card or a PCI adapter. I can't think of a situation in which you would need another router.
