You have to have a wireless router in order to have any wireless devices (i.e. Laptop). If the router on your desktop has wireless capability, then it will work. If not, you need a wireless one.

If your computer also has a wired RJ-45 ethernet port you can us it instead of buying a new router, or buy a Wireless Access Point to at WIFI to you current router.
