Default Small flat 'card' goes in your notebook. Wireless router or access point connects to your cable....

or DSL (or to your wired router, as in my case). Voila .... mobile computing. All for less than $300.

Default Check out this site ...

I am using it to select hotels that I will use as I cross the country. Make sure to check out the remote sites listed; not just the CA ones. In the high tech areas, you can take your WiFi into most *$ (Starbucks) for connectivity.

Wireless (WiFi) is fantastic.<ul><li><a href="http://www.wifimetro.com">WiFi Metro</a></li></ul>

Default Hi, Kim .... Are you using a notebook or desktop, and Windows or Mac?

Feel free to email me at eerickso1464@yahoo.com.

Check out http://www.computers4sure.com/product.asp?productid=429050 and http://www.computers4sure.com/product.asp?productid=429053 Both of these have rebates for a total of $50 and have high ratings. This setup would work assuming you've got a Windows notebook.
