Alright guys, for the longest i've been using the computer located in the living room of my house which has roadrunner. My computer in my room is pretty old, from 2001 I would say but it gets the basic jobs done. What I want to do now is get the internet on my room's computer and I know in order for me to do this I need to buy a router and a usb wireless adapter (I think), my question to those of you who have done this or know how to do this are:
- How does this process work...do I just get the router and plug it into the comp then plug in the usb adapter into the usb port?
- Do I even need a usb adapter for my comp? The dude at bestbuy told me I would need one since my comp is so old...I know my comp has ethernet but idk %@@ that is...
- Can anyone recommend me some brands to look for because when I was at best buy the dude was showing me a router from NetGear for $80 and the usb adapter for $40....so is that a good price?
As always all help is appreciated.
