Hi

I am not very technically minded and would appriciate some advice.

I have my desktop pc (Windows XP pro) and a Toshiba Sattelite laptop(Windows XP home)

I have Virgin Media Broadband with 100 (silver box) modem, up to 2mg broadband speed.

I am thinking of connecting my desktop and laptop wirelessly.
At present, I disconnect my desktop from the modem and then connect my laptop via the ethernet cable.

My laptop does not have a Wireless enabled network card so I think I would need a USB adaptor.

Does my desktop pc need to have a network card other than the ethernet one that currently connects my pc to my cable modem?

Any help/advice would be much appreciated.

Thank you
