Do I need both wireless router and wireless adaptor?
I have a Dell XP 410 desktop that is not wireless and a brand new laptop that is wireless. I have broadband through a modem that sits right next to the desktop. I bought a wireless router that I know to be compatible with all of these. Can I use just the router for wireless connection or do I need a wireless adaptor for the desktop in addition to the router? I have researched this beyond reason, but cannot find a simple yes or no to what seems like a simple question. All answers seem to get bogged down in so extra much techie talk and my mind does not operate in a techie way so I really need to have it kept 'stupid simple'!
3 AnswersComputer Networking1 decade agoWhy would one bidder have multiple identical bids for one item?
I am watching an item on ebay that shows 6 bids. When I look at the bidding history I see one person has placed multiple bids of 7.00 for this item at different increments of time. No other bids for different amounts have been placed by anyone else.. Are they trying to make it look like there is a lot of competition or is there another reason I see this?

My dog loves the taste of candied ginger. I give him the uncrystallined form so there is no sugar coating. So many things are poisinous to dogs, I want to be sure this is safe. The stuff is so spicy, I don't know why, but he seems to crave it.

2 AnswersOther - Home & Garden1 decade agoemail spam intruder?
I have an email from Borders.com that I keep because there it contains a page I refer to frequently. I have opened this many times without a problem, however last time I opened it the page instead showed a long winded diatribe about immigrants abusing the social security system. Whatever! I wonder how this spam took the place of the usual content I always saw and if I should report this spam intrusion to someone- Yahoo? Borders?
