Not true!!!! Here is how it works. You need wifi for the echo to talk
to your router. Only wifi computer or device you need is to tell
windows seven to connect to the echo which shows up under wireless
devices it sees. Once it establishes connection, that goes away and the
echo is on your network just like any wifi device. The computer, once
this is done, does not have to be wifi. When I first plugged my echo
in, I used a laptop with wifi and it showed up as amazon ssomething. I
told it to connect, and that was all I had to do. It is not that
complicated.

Hi Paulette:
The Amazon Echo, based on what I've read about it, uses wireless
connectivity to access the Internet. Does your router not support wireless
connectivity? If it does, you'll need to install a wireless access point
card on your computer for the Echo to work as advertised.
If it is working with your iPhone, it is connecting using WI-FI. I don't
know whether your computer comes with WI-FI built-in; the latest crop of
laptop computers in particular come with WI-FI already built-in, the service
just needs to be turned on.
Sincerely,
