then u will need either a 50m length of CAT 5 cable terminated with ethernet connectors (RJ45), to connect the SACM to your computer ethernet port,
OR
a wireless router (eg Netgear WGR614) connected to the SACM using the (supplied) ethernet patch cable, with a wireless network interface card in your PC to enable wireless connection to the router.
(you will have to buy the router and the NIC, obviously)

try and steer clear of USB devices if possible, ethernet is the way to go.
