Hey, question.

[conuly]

I'm pretty sure this isn't possible, but the less I have to buy, the better.

Is it at all possible to have one computer hooked up directly to the modem, and the other hooked up through the router?

Edit: All right, all right, all right. Unless you can guarantee me a new modem if it blows up the old one, I'm forgetting this insane idea.

Check Freecycle or Craigslist... A lot of people are upgrading their equipment right now, so they're basically dumping their 802.11b cards wherever they can. (They're selling for $1 to $5 on eBay, but I remember you saying that you can't buy stuff through there.)

(You won't notice the difference between 802.11b and 802.11g for just surfing the Internet...the only time it really shows up is if you're transferring huge files directly from one computer to the other.)
