IT Question

[caddyman]

Chaps,

There's a whole bunch of you out there who know these things, so I'd appreciate input.

What do I need to buy for my Laptop so that I can use wireless internet while I'm out and about? At home I don't have a wireless router or such, but I do have a very long cable down to the normal router, so intarweb access isn't a problem there.

Any idea of costs and such I should be looking out for?

Thanks.

If your laptop is reasonably new, it might well have a wireless card already. If not, that's what you'll need.

It's possible to get a PC-MIA card for a laptop, which will work on pretty much any pooter that has the requisite slot.

What's your laptop model?

Ah. Now you're asking. I won't know until I get home tonight. It is only 18 months old, though.
