Jeff, What is the exact model number of your router and where did you get it? My husband and I are planning to get DSL sometime in 06, and I want to get a wireless card so I can be wireless and he'll use the DSL with his Dell desktop machine. If you wish to write me off list, that is fine. Thanks for your help. Stacey and Amigo [EMAIL PROTECTED]
