Why don't you just take your laptop over there and find out? If it works,
then, yes, you just need to put a card in his machine. If it doesn't then
you'll have to give us a whole lot more information.

Just buy a PCI or USB donglw WiFi-g adaptor off eBay, dirt cheap (make sure
it's WPA encryption-capable) . Plug it in to the PC and off you go. My
laptop has wired and wireless adaptors that I use simultaneously.
share 2 networks
