It works exactly like the wireless you had before. That was either G or N wireless. (The only difference between G and N is the speed at which they run.)
If you do not have Comcast coming into your house to the router, then Wireless N will not help you. All it does is connect you to the router so you can use the Comcast already coming to the router.

particular, you are able to connect the laptop everywhere there is an unsecured hotspot, even if you're able to nevertheless get a instant router through fact maximum folk do not relish while their friends mooch off their internet connection. yet in spite of this possibly you have friendly friends who're cool with it. anyhow, instant "N" is the main contemporary version of the wifi generic. that's swifter and has a farther variety than the final version, "G". it is likewise backwards nicely suited, meaning for you to use your laptop with older routers too, you in simple terms won't get the value/variety benefit. in case you pick to get finished use out of 802.11/N (that's the technical term for it in case you have been questioning) then you definately besides mght might desire to get a instant router that makes use of instant N as nicely. then you definately gets the optimal velocity and variety out of your kit.
