hi...I have a Piii desktop PC as my main system in one room....I just got a G4 Mac Tibook, and wanna set up a wireless network so I can use the tibook in another room...I have cable internet, with 1 IP address....so, I'm wondering what I need to set this up??...the tibook has an ethernet card, but I'm assuming I need a PC card that will link up to the wireless base I choose... I checked out a wireless router that Linksys has---is this one that would work??...I'm thinking about a solution like this as opposed to Apple's Airport setup (base station and airport card) because what I have read about the Airport is that it's not that great and more expensive than one of these solutions by Linksys or SMC.

a wireless router will do the job fine, if you go to www.pdadeals.net, they list the linksys wireless router for $143 after a coupon from amazon, the cheapest by at least $20
