u need an internet connection and a router

You need a internet service provider (high speed lan) then wireless router
Or, you can pick up somebody else's wireless around college campus, coffee shop, or if lucky around your neighbors and use the connection (which is what I do)

ok thanks.
i have high speed internet on my desktop.
any good routers you guys recommend thats not to expensive? -
dlink makes good routers

You can not steal your neighbors internet. It is unsafe, and illegal. To get wireless in your home you need high speed internet (cable, dsl, etc), and a wireless router. -

congrats on the gift
well I was planning on getting an airlink router but no one seems to be posting in my thread about whether or not it is a good brand for routers. I currently use a linksys but its an B - band. Kinda old.
Your probably loooking for a wireless g or wireless n router

Check on smallnetbuilders.com they test routers. If I recall they did some testing on some cheap routers to see how the faired. Some were very good.
