Wireless

If you do set up a wireless router, be sure to set up wep or better wpa encryption, hide your ssid,and you may even want to restrict the the router to only talk to the MAC address on your wife's wireless card. I hope that wasn't to technical, I think I got them all, (been a long day). Detailed instructions for doing that should be on a pdf on a cd or maybe a manual, that comes with the router. You can also google "home wireless security" or "home wireless setup", and you will find tons of info. Otherwise Out of the box it will work great windows will find your wireless network connect right up to it and you are good to go. Only problem is that anyone else that comes along your neighborhood can get on your network and possibly do harm or the very least get free internet access from you.
