Hello,
How do i connect a wireless internet on a computer that isn't wireless, I'm sharing an AT&T router for my other computer and my sisters, but the router is in her house, not in mine? Please help as soon as you can. Thank you in advance
P.S. My computer has XP and it has Internet Explorer 8.0

You buy a USB wifi adapter or wifi internal card for a desktop. A laptop could use either the USB adapter or a PCMCIA card that slides into the side of the laptop.
The small USB adapters don't have much of an antenna. So, you might have reception problems. Some USB adapters have provision for a plug-in antenna that might be of use. There are also some USB adapters that have a BIG parabolic antenna that can be aimed at the router.
Good Luck
