I have my new computer all set up, and now i'm looking to setup a wireless lan between my new computer and old computer.

My new computer has the ASUS A8V motherboard which comes with the WiFi-g wireless LAN

I have it installed, but I haven't set up the wireless software because my other computer isn't ready yet.

What I need to know is what network card I need in my other computer to receive the wireless info beaming back and fourth.

All I am looking to do between the two computers is share internet and a printer. Thats all.

The manual doens't really do a good job explaining what you need in the other machine. All it says is: "other computers must have installed IEEE 802.11b/g wireless LAN adapter"

So obviously I need one of those. Can anyone direct me to one that would be compatible? I'd appreciate it.

Thank you.
