What Can I Do With wireless Broadband?

Well, this improved innovation makes it possible for you to set up a wireless broadband connection at home/work which lets you use the internet on your laptop or another desktop computer, without the need to connect them to your main computer using wires.

How Do I Get wireless broadband Access?

To set up wireless broadband in your home, you will need to have a broadband connection already set up, you will need to buy a wireless broadband router which is the device which sends the wireless broadband signal around your home and you will need to buy a wireless network LAN card for your laptop or second computer which receives your broadband signal. Once you have the network set up, you will also have the added advantage that as your computers are networked together, you will be able to send and receive files from one computer to the other, read files off any of the computer hard drives from any computer in the network and print documents directly from any computer in the network. You will have to leave your main computer on for all of this to be possible though. However you don't need to leave your main computer on to use your broadband wirelessly around your home as the wireless broadband router will still send the broadband signal around your house even when your main computer is switched off.

If you only want to use your laptop in Wifi hotspots when you are out and about then you will only need to buy a wireless LAN card as a broadband router is not required in this case (you will only need a broadband router if you were to use your laptop or computer wirelessly at home). The other thing you will need is an account with a Wifi service provider to give you Wifi access.

Several broadband service providers have several packages available and now include Wifi products, such as wireless kits, wireless minutes, LAN cards etc.
