Thank you etaf for you response. I am currently setting up an old desktop computer with VISTA OS installed for a friend. At this time he does not need to have a wireless connection to broadband but will in 2 to 3 years. He currently signed up with Quest Broadband this December 2013 and has asked for my help with a router. Does he actualy need a router or would a cable modem be enough at this time. What cables would I need? And does he need an ethernet card installed on computer. Thanks again for your thorough answer above. Too bad the poster never got back to answer your questions because others like myself learn from these posts.
