what you need is a wireless router you can get one from best buy or circuit city even walmart!!!
and you already have wireless built into your new laptop
so buy that and read the manual to make your wireless work.
you only need to put 2 wires into the wirless router to make it work, one of those wires is the power plug!!!
u already have wireless card in the laptop…so just go to wifi service..and u will see u get connection
Get a wireless router that supports 802.11G and has 4 LAN ports. I’d recommend either Linksys or Netgear.
The router will have a "WAN" port plus 4 "LAN" ports.
Turn all your equipment off – including the cable modem.
Connect the cable that goes from your desktop PC to cable modem and connect it router WAN port to cable modem. (just move it from the desktop pc to the router). Connect the desktop PC to one of the LAN ports on the router. You may need to buy a length of CAT5 Ethernet cable when you buy the router?
Power everything – it should just work.
