I currently run 2 PCs on a wired network at home, using Windows XP and BT Broadband, and it works fine. I now want to add a laptop (which has the Intel Centrino processor) but on a wireless network without disturbing my existing one above. How do I do this - is it as simple as getting an AP router linked to my existing hub? Also will I need any more hardware for the Acer alptop or is the Centrino WiFi enough?<br />
