Johanna Wall, queen of all that is unseen, explain to me what I need to do and how much it costs to get a wireless system set up at my home, being that you have one. My father was wondering because now that I have my computer, and need to use it in my room, we don't know what to do. Thank you darling. Congrats also!

and you're best bet would actually be to go to an office max or something and ask them about wireless networking. it's pretty simple, but you need to make sure you get everything you need. you basically just need the router/adapter (whatever) for your main computer, and a network card for your laptop.

this is my network card

and this is our router/adapter/whatever the heck it's called

the great thing is that if you have more than two computers, you just need another network card. i think that at our house we have at least three computers all connected to the main computer with network cards.

hope that helps a bit!

How much do you have to like pay a month then?

a month? no, you just pay to get the networking equipment, and then it works for free. we just pay for internet and such, but the networking cards can be used to hook up to the internet through the main computer, so it doesn't cost anything extra.
