| Buy a wireless router, i have linsys, then when you configure each device for a computer and such make sure the code for the name of the device is the same as the router. and you also need to call you ISP and have them register it so your modem will work with is Also when you hook the router up to the modem hook the ethernet chord up to the WAN uplink port, the one furthest form the other ports. |

i don't think so
if you're on DSL, make sure the router supports PPPoE and read the manual on how to set it up.
and don't forget to by some wireless LAN cards for your PCs ;) :p |

| So all I need is a router that plugs into the ethernet port at the back of my modem, and a wireless PCI card as a reciever? Can someone confirm this? |

Yeah, thats all you need...pretty much any store that sells networking stuff will have people there that will know what they're talking about if you have more questions. |
