you need wireless network card (usb or pci) and a wirelss router (providing you dont have them already).network card plugs into pci slot,usb network card plugs in usb(obviously).the wireless router would plug into your phone line and provide internet through wireless signal to the computer.i got tp-link the network card was $25 the router was $80.my internet does drop out quite a bit so i wouldnt recommend tp-link as a top brand.
