I am thinkig of upgrading my win98 computer to XP. At the same time
to install a wireless router in order to use a Dell lap top- win Vista; which has wireless on/off switch/faciities, (from another room.)
The win 98 computer came with a built in modem but now connected to Tiscali ISP , hence the modem is now obsolete.Tiscali has provided me with a router now
Reading various articles in the web pages, it seems necessary to install a Network Interface Card (NIC)inside the win 98 computer for the router to work
Please advice if I should remove the obsolete modem in win 98 computer and install the NIC.
Which model of NIC should I go for and other steps I should consider. I am grateful for your invaluable advice. Thanks
