[Simply Computers] Re: Ways to connect my laptop to internet connection

 

If you want to unplug your desktop computer from your modem and plug in your laptop computer, you do not need to buy a router.

A router is only if you want to use your desktop and your laptop at the same time.

But take a look at the back of your modem ... if it has more than one jack with which to connect a computer, it is already a router!
