Hi, i need help to build up a WLAN...
I have PC with Cable-Internet (24h line) and
soon Alienware Notebook with USB adapted WLAN-Stick.
Now i want to surf the internet, on my alienware...

Is there a possibility to get a AP or Router and stick it into the PC and then surf with the notebook...or can i also use the pc as router so that i don't have to registry the lappy??
Any ideas??

every advice appreciated...
thx shade

edit: Have i already mentioned that i love those smileys?

You look increadibly confused on this issue. You are going to need an AP or you could Adhoc from your desktop provided you get a PCI wireless card (this is possible but I would not suggest it.) I would suggest getting the AP and in fact I would suggest getting the Netgear 802.11g router its waht I have and I find its one of the easiest ones to set up and use. I even got one for my mom for mothers day!!!!

Only 39.99 after rebate! you can't beat that!
