I have a wireless modem in my house I use for a couple of laptops. My daughter just bought a desktop and I was wondering how easy would it be to set up the desktop to use the wireless modem?

Thanks.

Should be almost as simple...

You will need to equip the desktop with a WiFi device. Take the case top off and plug one of these into the motherboard:-


Or, even simpler, plug this into a USB port:-


Whichever type you get, and whatever make, they should come with software on a CD. Read the instructions first, you may need to partially install the software BEFORE plugging in the device.
