I have Verizon DSL connection in my home. The DSL modem is connected to
my desktop computer via USB cable. I can connect to the internet just
fine. I recently bought a Dell laptop computer with wireless
networking capabilities. I also got a Netgear wireless router. I
followed the instruction but I am confused. The instruction that came
with wireless router talks only about ethernet cable, adapter etc. It
does not say anything about connecting DSL modem to my desktop via USB
cable.. Does it mean that I will have to have ethernet card installed
in my desktop computer before my laptop can establish any wireless
connection?
Should I go ahead and get a wireless network card installed in my
desktop computer instead of ethernet card? Or do you think I should be
able to create a network without the ethernet card?
