Re: Pretty Simple Questen

I have a silly question? I see that I have 1394 Net Adaptor on my desktop. Does this mean I am wireless and can go wireless without buying anything? Or will I need to get like a USB network card?

No, the 1394 adapter is firewire, it has nothing to do with wireless connectivity.
