I purchased a wireless router thinking I needed it for my wireless card for my desktop I purchased the same day. I installed the wireless card without using the wireless router. So now my question is, if my card can find the high speed internet from my cable modem, what is the point of the wireless router?

Thanks!

ok...i'm still confoooosed :confused: ... Do you have a wireless modem, linked to your computer with a wireless adaptor / card? What's is your setup?

you guys are too quick to blame this guy for theft. I still maintain that there are such things as Wireless Cable Modem Gateways which in essence combine wireless G routers (or B) with a modem. this is one such product:
