Wifi linksys help me please install

Question

I have a computer windows 2000 (I know very old). My neighbor has wifi access (I am allowed to use) and I use my PSP for internet access. However, I want to have wifi access to my desktop PC too. She uses Linksys. Question is, I dont know how to install it or something (her boyfriend installed everything for her but hes not around). I am going to buy Linksys but then what? Do I need a modem for it? A working phone line? any additional usb something or program?

I'm no techie. Also, is wifi connection fast. She has both broadband plus wifi. Can I combine the two for a faster connection? thanks

Answer 1

If you are not really familiar with networking. I suggest to ask help for computer engineers or an I.T. near you to avoid voiding the warranty.

Answer 2

From the way you are asking these questions, it'll be better actually someone set that up for you.  

Answer 3

go to store and but a "wireles network card" for your computer (make sure you have an open pci slot in your computer)

or get a wireless network adaptor for usb.

Answer 4

You attach the linksys router to the modem, you must install a usb wireless LAN card to your computer.

If your modem is connected to a phone-line then the modem is a ADSL modem and are normally fitted with its own wireless router
