Wireless Router
I have received a LINKSYS Model WRT54GS-BP router. My main computer has XP
for the OS, the laptop has a D-LINK DWL-G650 wire less card buss adapter. My question is this. Will ME and XP work together? I am sorry if this not clear, I am not very good at this. Thanks for any help!!! Mike D |

Wanted to tap into the Wife's internet for online coarses I'm not sure what you mean by "G" router card.
