Just bought a Mac Probook and need wireless internet, what do I need to get as far as service?

Answer 1

First you need a service provider. DSL is fast and much better priced lately than cable. Next you will need a wireless router to broadcast the signal to your laptop. You will want to secure your home connection and your router manufacturer will most likely offer that support via phone. (I recoment Lynksys or D-link for the support)

As for free internet. Most coffee shops and airports offer it and your laptop will pick up the connection automatically.

Hope this helps

Answer 2

If you don't want to pay, just war crusie, and go to cafe's. Otherwise your looking between 45-60 dolars a month from either the cable company or the phone company. You can often rent the rougter and the wi-fi port. If your looking to buy i think the set up around 80 dolars.

Answer 3

Linksys has no Mac support, believe me, I've got a Mac and a Linksys wireless router. They do work though. Buffalo routers have Mac support and maybe others.
