    PCMCIA Wireless Cards
    Hello I have recently acquired a new system and would like to share my current ADSL connection through both computers.

    A friends father has a pcmcia wireless card in his laptop and he shares his connection with the home computer although I`m unaware if he has a wireless modem or hub.

    I`m wondering if I need a hub as well as the wireless pcmcia card to network these two computers?

    Oh and I forgot to add whether if I do need a wireless hub would I just plug the adsl cable into the hub then usb to the downstairs computer and use the pcmcia card for the upstairs computer?

    The Home will have a DSL or Cable modem and to wireless router. The computer here can be hardwired, the Laptop can access this router by using Built in wireless, PCMCIA
    Card, or USB adapter. The home computer can have any of these also to go wireless, also.
