re: WiFi information where can I get it. Tuesday, January 13, 2009 at 5:56 am Windows Vista Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by JimmyK (168 messages posted) Any good wireless router will do, I prefer Linksys myself but others have their choices and reasons. You can pick one up at your local walmart for $50 or less. It comes with software and is real easy to set up, I mean easy. If my parents can do it and they are in their late 60's, you can do it. You can only use routers for broadband connections and thats cable and DSL, so your covered there. Just follow on screen prompts and with in about 10 minutes or less you'll have your wireless router set up and ready to use your laptop with no problems. The key is to match the router to the type of wireless your laptop has, in this case wireless N, so just get a wireless N router which will give you the fastest possible download/upload speeds but b and g will work just not as fast. Good luck and happy wireless computing.
