If you want to be able to use the Internet on one PC without having to turn the other PC on, then you'll need a router. | |

You dont NEED a router if £ is an issue, you can set up an ad-hoc network with just the 2 wireless cards, and then one of the computers dials up the connetion like you do now, but a router by far the best option and the easiest to set up. :thumbs: | |

We have a D Link which we use for 2 of our machines, works fine and gets a signal anywhere in the house. | |

get a 54mbps router, that you can also plug into (cat5) plug you desktop into the router to get full speed, and the laptop uses the wifi, make sure you setup a password for the wifi though. D-Link stuff is probably the best to get. | |
