    Default wireless network setup

    I've just bought a laptop and I want to share my current 2mg broadband connection through a wireless router, however, my current speedtouch usb modem does not have a ethernet point.
    My question is do I have to buy a adsl router with a built in modem or do I just replace my current modem with another with a ethernet point on it?
    I'm totally new to this networking business so any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    If you don't already have a router, your best bet would be to buy a wireless router with a built in modem.
