Inspiron 1521 Help

I am set to have my Inspiron delivered tomorrow and want to know what I am going to need to be able to set it up to connect to my home PC and internet wirelessly. My inspiron has: AMD Turion 64 X2 TL-64 (2.2GHz/1MB) Dell Wireless 1505 Wireless-N Mini Card Integrated 10/100 Network Card and Modem, for Inspiron I know I am going to need a wireless router (?)....anything else? Which is the best? Should I have any problems with my home PC running on XP and my notebook running Vista? Thanks ******ALSO........WHERE IN THE F**** DO I TYPE IN REPLIES TO THE POSTS??????***************** Message Edited by jasandalb on 11-12-2007 01:49 PM Message Edited by jasandalb on 11-12-2007 01:49 PM

    I have a 2 months old 1521 and i just needed a router to connect with my pc.
    I had problems sharing files so i bought network magic wich i find very good, and the program set it all up.
     
    For the secound question , i don't know both are with vista.

    Hello,
     
    I've had my 1521 for about 10 days and configured a wireless connection using my existing Qwest DSL modem (model # 2700HG-D) and everything works great.
     
    I also have a 2-year old Inspiron 6000 running Windows XP and it too has a wireless connection to the same Qwest DSL modem without any problems whatsoever.
     
    (Qwest is the name of my phone company.)

    *DELL Inspiron 1521*
    AMD X2 TL-60 2.0GHz, 15.4" WXGA TrueLife Display

    ATI RADEON X1270 Integrated Video, Bluetooth Enabled

    dhalld do you have the athlon or turion?
    I have the same configuration as you with athlon and find it somewhat slow, of course my other is a dimension 9200 pc so probably that is why i find it slow.
