Depends on the computer? Mac laptops come ready to go.  All you need
is an "airport" express or base station if you are not in range of
free wifi.  PC's, I believe, require cards, etc.  At home,  I have my
MacBook Pro laptop connected wirelessly to my stereo & printer + the
internet.  Only required a wifi base station to transmit to the cable
modem.

RVC-I can sit in my westy & send stuff wirelessly to volks around the
world.

YMMV,
