Wait... I'm a bit confused. Do you want to use wireless internet, or use your cell phone for dial up internet? For the first, wireless internet, you need a broadband service provider, a wireless router, and a wireless card for your pc. For the second, using your cell phone for dialup you need... oh hell I know there's a way to do this, but I only know it works with laptops, not pcs. It's complicated, but this site can explain, for laptops, anyhow: http://www.bmyers.com/public/938.cfm?sd=30 For a pc... honestly it would just be easier to get a phone jack installed in the basement.

Install a wireless pcmcia adapter card if not already equipped. Have software to facilitate the usage of said card. Be near a WAP or wireless access point and join the network.

Get a wireless PC card and put it into your PC slot...you can get either b or g for your laptop.\n\nIt looks like this:\nhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000056SSM/002-2707582-1676853?v=glance&n=172282\n\nIf you already have WIFI on your laptop then you dont need this card, but if you dont, then you need to force your laptop to be wireless by getting the card above.\n\nIts pretty cheap. You can also get it on ebay for cheaper. Once you slide it in, you can automatically connect.

So do you have DSL, CABLE or DIAL UP? Cuz there ar emany companies who give you wireless cards where you can access internet on the go. IF you have BROADBAND then just get a wireless router and a wireless adaptor and configure it an dyou are done. For more info contact your computer manufacturer and to get a second opinion you can always contact your Internet Service Provider.

you need to have windows 98SE or higher operating system.  Then you can definately get a USB wifi adapter or a PCMCIA port one.  The devices come with a driver/software disc, instructions and may have free techsupport.

Hi there, \nI work as an IT analyst for BT's wireless internet access so hopefully I can help.\ntoo make your lap wireless enabled all you need to have is a wireless card , if this is a new laptop it will probably have one installed all ready---If your using it at home you will need to buy a wireless router, widely avaiable from about £20, quite simple to set up and then you can surf the net any where in the house.

you will need something call a router (buy them at Bestbuy or Circuit City.) Hook up is quite easy (just read the instruction) If you buy a wireless router, then you will need wireless adapter (Internal or USB) for both desktop and laptop

You'll need a wireless router to hook to your cable modem and a wireless network card to put in your desktop.\n\nWhat you need is pretty common.  Just go to your local electronics store and they'll hook you right up.

If your laptop is fairly new you should already have a built-in wireless network card.  If you don't, you can purchase a wireless PC or USB card from your local computer store.\n\nIf you want to connect to your DSL at home you must also have a Wireless Access Point or Router.  Some DSL providers provide it for free when you sign up with the for a year.\n\nIf you want to use wireless Internet in Public Places such as coffee shop you must pay a fee (Some coffee shops offer wireless for free) in which case if you have a laptop with Windows XP it should automatically detect wireless networks withing range.

if your computer doesn't have a wireless card, go pick up a wireless  usb adapter.  it's a lot easier to set up than opening your computer and installing a pci card.\n\nhere is an example.\n\nBelkin Wireless-G USB 2.0 Network Adapter \nModel: F5D7050\nit goes for about $40, but you can always find a cheaper one from Fry's.
