one more question i am getting a wirless router and dsl next week is there anything else i need to do im going to hook the router and dsl modem up to my desktop and just use my adapter on my laptop i want to make sure my laptop is still going to work.

BCCOMP

Glad to here you have it up and running.

If you are going to connect to a DSL modem and router you should have no issues, but if the router is going to be wireless make sure you secure the wireless router. This will stop people from using your wireless connection.

Are you installing this or a professional?
