Susan,
I reread your question and would like to clarify my response. A router is a
device that essentially creates a network in your home. Any computers in
your home, including your BN, will be part of this network and should be
able to send files back and forth to each other. All the computers on the
network can also access the internet via the cable connection. Again, it
sounds like the cable company will be providing a router for you and you
shouldn't have to buy anything else.

Susan,
Sounds to me like your cable provider is going to provide a router for
you. If this is the case, you shouldn't need anything else to connect your
BN to the network.

Hi,
I've been following this discussion with interest. I ordered the ambicom
card from Amazon and it arrived yesterday. So far that's the only part
of
the connection to anything wireless I have. Next week the cable company
is
coming to install high speed cable. Since I don't have a cable outlet
near
the computer, they have a wireless thing, (not sure if this is a router,
or
a network) Up to 5 computers can connect to this via wireless. Is there
anything else I need to get my BN connected to the internet or to my
computer? Any hints from comcast users would be appreciated. Thanks.
Sue Mangis
Ps. The first test is getting into the plastic for the card.
