SACM and wireless connection

I have a PC with a sacm and I want to connect it wirelessly to a new laptop which is wireless enabled. I do not have any spare slots in my pc to install a wireless card, so what is the best way around this please? Can I just buy a wireless router and connect it between my modem and pc or what?

Re: SACM and wireless connection

I have my router all set up and working( after a few difficulties). My wireless laptop comes on Thursday. Whe I set it up, do I use the "Wireless Network Set Up Wizard" or "Network Set Up Wizard" or both. I guess it is both, the second one allows you to share files, printers etc, but being new to all this, advice would be appreciated.

Try the wirless network setup wizard first and see if it does everything you want it to, if not then run the second wizard too.
