I looking to buy a 15" Al Powerbook. Instead off buying an Apple Base Station, what are the other options/brands available to do wireless thru-out the house. I have cable modem service already.

There are many options available, I personally use a LinkSys (http://www.linksys.com/products/group.asp?grid=33&scid=35) Wireless Router/Base Station, but D-Link (http://www.dlink.com/products/category.asp?cid=1) also seems to be popular. Basically any product that is compatible with 802.11g or 802.11b will work.

Hope this helps, if you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Thanks, I wasn't 100% sure that I could use one off of the shelf.
