you'll need ethernet cards if your computer doesnt already have them. and if you're planning to connect wireless, you'll need a different card. thas about it. i have the same router

If you buy that router, you'd also need to buy wireless lan cards, otherwise, I think you can still hard wire to that. But it's a waste to buy a wireless router and not use the wireless capabilities..

So you both will need these: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....cat25300050002
