Ijust got dsl after moving to a new area. since i could not set up my desktop computer at that time I installed it on my laptop. I just used the modem sent to me bythe company. Now I want to have my desktop connected through the dsl and have my laptop able to connect while I'm somewhere else in the house. I was told I needed a router. so I purchased a Netgear wireless. the instructions are pretty basic however when I try to connect to the internet it does not work. I can connect if I use just the modem without the router. Can someone explain to me if it really is necessaqry to have the router and if so what the heck I'm doing wrong? any and all suggestions will be greatly appredciated
