Hi



ADSL internet connection down a BT Phone line (UK), USB Modem provided by ISP.

Have a Desktop (XP Home) with wired Adapter, and Laptop (XP Pro) with Wireless adapter.

To setup a wireless Network, i Have been told that i will have to get a Wireless Router/Modem, i can not just use a Wireless Router.

Is this correct, don't want to go out and get the wrong router.
If any body can reccomend a product,for this sort of setup, please do.

Thanks for any help on this.

The problem is that a wireless router (or any router) with a USB connection for the modem is rare. I don't know of one.

But wireless adsl modem/routers are common.
Try the sites for Linksys, Dlink, Netgear.
I would check first for one the same make as your wireless adapter.
