My daughter has been given a pc and I was wondering what I would require to make it wireless as there is no phone point in her bedroom, we have a laptop using a router

Thanks Stanehyve

    Assuming it's a desktop PC rather than a laptop, she'll need either a USB wireless adaptor like this one, or if you're happy to open the case and install a PCI card inside the PC, something like this.

    If she's got a laptop, there's probably a wireless adaptor built in.

    Knowing the model number of your router would be useful.
