Do I require an additional wireless card built in to my PC to enable a wireless USB connector to work?

My home PC is not wireless and does not have a wireless card. I would like to enable this PC to become wireless by using a wireless USB connector; is this USB connector sufficient or do I require something else?

1. Nope, all you need is the wireless USB stick. It has all the technology on it you need to hook up wireless-ly.
2. Assuming that you have a wireless router, you'll be fine with a wireless USB connector. Personally, I would go for a PCI wireless card.
3. No. The wireless USB is all you need. Find out what kind of router you will be attaching to (B, G, N) and buy one of that type or faster. B= 11MB G=54MB N=300MB YOu will only get the best speed your router will provide but I always plan ahead. But faster is more expensive.
4. thats all you need, but USB wireless cards are used for laptops. if you are using a desktop and have an open PCI slot use an internal wireless card. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833320022
5. USB wireless cards are for desktops and notebooks. I have used them on both. PCMCIA cares are probably the best choice for laptops, especially if you are roaming. I also want you to check out this technology: http://www.cnet.com/4520-7390_1-6274537-3.html?tag=tab
