Basically i'm getting a really crap reception from my router and i have been advised to buy a wireless PCI adapter. Could someone correct me if i am wrong before i buy it.
Basically this just makes my computer search a wider area for a signal right? All i need to do is fix it in and switch my computer on. I don't need to connect my router to it or anything do i?
Sorry i'm a bit slow with computers
 
After you install the card and boot your computer, you will most likely have to install the driver for the wireless card. After that, depending on if you have your wireless router secured or not, you may have to enter a encryption key to connect to router and be able to surf online.
