Question by CJ: What is the difference between wireless network adapter and USB adapter?
I want to buy a device that will connect my laptop using wireless technology but I am not quite sure which device to buy. I have a BT broadband (modem) which is connected to my desktop PC but I want to add a laptop to the broadband. Please help!

USB refers to a “Universal Serial Bus” port on your device or computer. Therefore, you can have a USB Wireless Network Adapter. Not all Wireless Network Adapters utilize USB connections, however. Bottom line, if you want to go wireless, buy a wireless adapter, whether it’s USB or otherwise.
If your BT modem is WiFi enabled, you’re good to go. I’d suggest using a BT brand wireless adapter to ensure things work smoothly and with minimal complications, though.
