Wireless Question

As Co stated so eloquently in her journal, our cousin passed away on Monday. His grandmother, our aunt, sent his brand new laptop home with my parents. I know it will be awhile before I do it, but I was wondering/hoping that people could tell me what they use for routers since I live in a wi-fi free zone. I know once I get this hooked up, it will probably be glued to my side. I've just transferred my documents over so far so I can work on them at work.

Thanks in advance for any help.
