Help! i need to install a wireless network at home... i have a desktop and a wifi enabled laptop... i would also want to share an internet connection between the 2... any ideas? has digit done a wifi networking article recently? i would really appreciate any help... thanks

Though I am not so good at networking, let me give it a shot. You will need following hardware.

1 X Plugi-in WiFi card for your desktop
1 X Wireless router (to share your internet connection)

Install the WiFi card on your desktop (including the s/w). Plug in the internet cable to wireless router. Then turn on the dektop and laptop and see if that detects the wireless network or not. This is very basic. You can certainely make your network much more secure than this.

Seniors please dont blow me away if I am wrong.

The above method is the right one. Go for netgear routers if u dont have one....too easy to setup

Thanks a ton zombie

i'm working on what you suggested... I really appreciate the help... thank you too cyrux
