Go for Linksys products. Don't go for cheap products as they will not be able to maintain speed and stability.

You need:
1) wifi PCI LAN card -> Rs. 500 -Rs.1000/-
2) A wifi DSL modem cum router (for DSL internet connection like BSNL, MTNL, Airtel BB). Prefer to get it from your ISP.

1. You have to have a router (not an access point)......... connected to your PC to build a wireless LAN. A good router (one I mentioned below) would cost you around 2000 bucks..

2. Yes as I mentioned in the above point.

3. Yes you can share data from both your dasktop to laptop and vice versa....

4. No all you need is a router.....for all your needs...

In the end I would suggest.............. Linksys WRT54G as the router.....which is what I have for the past year.........(running broadband almost 24x7).....

bro if router is connected to the PC then how will i get broadband on both my lappy & desktop?

ok,So you meant that i need only a router & a cat5 cable. right? i know that Linksys makes good value for money router but what your view on asus i have heard that they makes best routers?

bro i have heard that some router does not allow software like G talk & windows msger to be used, is that true?

so i need one Linksys WRT54G & cat5 cable will come with it & i will get wifi broadband on my place & Bro will you guide me how to setup wifi once i get it?
