Just curious, how do you currently get Internet? There has to be a modem with a router of some kind. (Often the router is built into the modem.) Most -- if not all -- modern DSL or cable modems are combination devices. They usually have the modem, plus the router, (and often) plus a switch (multiple ethernet connections) built in. And a lot (if not most) of these devices also include WiFi capability -- though it not always used or turned on.
Yeah, rcentros is correct. But again I'm assuming you have to have a modem if you're getting internet service, and most of those now have built-in wifi, which is why I said you might double-check if that's not the case for your modem. What ISP do you have?
