I'm pretty sure that that is just an adapter that would require an already purchased and set up router. I would go with a router but make sure you pick a good one because for some reason my router and I don't get along very well. I got a DI-524 from Dlink. It's fine for the average home user but I would prefer a longer range than just 100 feet. And randomly I lose access then get it back in a second. It's annoying. Good luck.

I have some Linksys thing i found in my Aunts basement and she gave to me cause she had just upgraded her WiFi, its got b and g, which is good, cause you never know when you gonna need either, though ive never seen anything use anything besides b, i use it for my PSP and my sister sometimes uses it for her DS but other then that it just sits there lol

Hmm i think might go with the DI-524 from dlink it sounds good enough and it isnt too expensive.

i just got a linksys , thought i'd join the wireless revolution at last.

had a few teething troubles to start with not knowing anything about wireless, but now i run it with a custom bios which lets me boost the measely 28mw output all the way upto 250mw (i use 70mw so as to not get into trouble with broadcasting authorites) meaning i have reception at the end my garden instead of just to the back door.

custom bios from : www.dd-wrt.com (http://www.dd-wrt.com)
