I am purchasing a Speedtouch 585 Router/Modem. I wish to connect my Desktop to my Wifes Laptop which is wi-fi enabled. I am trying to establish whether I can connect the Router to my Desktop using the Ethernet cable or whether I need to install anything within my computer. I have an AMD Athlon 3000+XP using XP SP2. My motherboard is a Chaintech 7NJL1 Apogee. It says in the manual that it 'Supports 10/100Mb Fast Ethernet or 1/10Mb HomePNA 2.0 with external PHY' What does this mean? Does it need anything else and if so what?
