- NEW!
by JimmyG on July 22nd, 2009
If I'm reading your question right - you already had one computer at home that is connected to the internet and you want to connect your new laptop too - you need a router. You connect each of your computers to the router and the router to the internet connection. The router resolves what goes where.

You may want a wireless router so you can take your laptop from room to room. Wireless routers still have ports in the back to plug in a desktop computer, but a wireless router enables most laptops to connect to the router without plugging them in.
