I have a HP desktop with Windows Vista.  I recently purchased a wireless G Router.  I have had a friend to stay with me, and he brought his desktop computer with him.  Is there anyway we can hook that computer in a different room and make it wireless, or do i have to plug it the the router?  Thanks

You can install a Wireless G network card into his tower and then enter the router password on his computer and it will connect.

If you really dont care about cost / quality I would go with the Dynex Wireless G PCI Card, I installed it in my mothers computers and had no problem.

Can i hook my playstation 2 to the wireless router

[DonnieBrackett]

there is no slot to put a PCI Card at

Are you sure of this? Did you actually look inside the tower? If thats the case, you will then need a Wireless USB WiFi adapter.

haven't looked inside yet.

Cant make the assumption then that you dont have a PCI slot till you look in there

Dont know what a PCI slot is ? go to www.bustype.com and take a look at them
