will WRT54GSUK work in my laptop?
I have the WRT54GSUK with my NTL modem. I run a PC and two laptops with it. One laptop has built in wireless and t'other has a card in the slot. All works perfectly.

One important bit of advice though: make sure you hide your network otherwise you might find your neighbour logging in! I'm not that sure how to explain how do to that (had to get someone to do it for me) but someone on here will tell you. What made me get it done was my nephew came to visit with his mobile phone that had internet connection and within 5 seconds he'd logged into my network!! Frightening if you have dodgy people lving nearby
Have a look at http://www.cableforum.co.uk/forum/article.php?a=12 for general instructions on securing a wireless network.
