most newer routers support old and new protocols. Find out which protocol your router is using (802.11g or n) and get the matching part for your computer.
if you use a g (the slower of the two protocols) router and buy an n usb bridge, it will only be able to transmit / receive at the slower g speed and you wasted your money one the faster part.

The trick behind buying add-ons for your network is the letter. If the router is G then the USB stick must be G; etc...
That should be it. If you have a Linksys router you do not need a Linksys USB stick and brand will work as long as the letter is the same.

Mostly, yes, as long as the device follows the standard 802.11 standard, it'll work.
