Can I use a laptop wireless router next to my desktop?
Answer:
You are really asking could you use a PCMCIA wireless NIC card with your desktop computer directly. Then answer is NO. Unless you acquire a PCMICA adaptor. In that case it woulnd't be worth It!!!!!!
yes you can, you want to buy a wireless adapter (USB Dongle) that you plug into the computer to allow it to see the router
obsolutely yes.. . my landlord's got a wireless router for her daughter's laptop. and we in recent times use a netgear wireless adapter with our desktop for the signal. for almost 3 years untill only just we connected our pc to the rounter next to wire that made it faster.
Ignore the other answer roughly 'PCMCIA', dude is a moron.
You can get wireless exchange cards adaptors that plug into your USB port and allow you to have matching wireless ability as a laptop (with the exception of adjectives those cords keeping you from dragging your desktop around the house with you).
The best bet though, is to put your wireless router in close proximity your desktop machine--most of them have the skill to plug at least one computer directly into them.
you obligation a wireless card for whatever computer you want to connect, after u need a wireless router attatched to your modem. so u could use it next to your big computer, if you get a wireless card for it.
You can use wireless near your desktop if you add a wireless card (they come both internal and USB) to the desktop.
However, if you are close satisfactory to the router, you can just run a make friends cable from the desktop to the wireless router, plug it in to one of the ports, and use it that instrument. Wireless routers are just regular, use a cable next to it, routers that ALSO broadcast a wireless signal. So you can use them either road.
