Thanks to all the encouragement I received here back in September, I'm about to buy the first (of two) new iMacs for the office in a couple of weeks.
I'm sure I can find this out on the day, in the shop, but I'd like to put my mind at rest beforehand.
We have a Netgear router with both G4s and the printer connected with ethernet cables. It's also our route to the internet and works like a dream. It is, actually, a wireless router, thank goodness. (I just happen to be using it wired atm.)
Here's the question.
I presume the new iMac will come with wireless connectivity? This is key, since I want to put it in another room and do all my self-training in a calmer environment...... How will the new iMac "see" the Netgear router and vice versa? People tell me it's simple and easy but never having seen or done it I'd like another point of view, please? What happens when you get it out of the box and plug it in - in this respect?
Many thanks.
