I am totally new to Wireless,but have successfully set up the Comcast cable
modem, the DLink AirPlus Extreme DWL-650 and the corresponding DLink card
DI-624 for the laptop.

All work well but I have as Virus detector NOD32 running on both machines,
which use as OS WinXP Pro on desktop and WinXP Home on laptop.

I have not set up any other firewall (tried it but then I cannot use the
laptop remotely to access the Internet)

The D-link Technical people said that their router was enough anyhow.

Who has a similar setup and can advise?
