I recently got a cable modem and would like to hook up a wireless network so I can use a notebook in the house and connect to the Internet. The notebook has a built in wireless card and picks up WIFI automatically whenever we're in a hot spot. I purchased a wireless router and attempted to hook it up, but when I needed to hook the router into the PC tower, I found that the network cable was the "wide" type and the connection on the PC was a small one (like for a telephone). My PC is about three or four years old and doesn't seem to have a port for a network cable. Is there another (cheap) solution? An adapter? I only borrow the notebook from work and so don't want to spend a fortune hooking up the wireless network. Any help would be appreciated!
