Do I need a new wireless router
Currently have a Linksys router WRK54G that I bought 3 yrs ago. I have created a home network, consisting of 2 different wireless laptops and a wireless printer. I have an internet cable modem connected to the router and the network works just fine.
In the future, my large community will have wireless internet connectivity, so I will no longer need the internet cable service, which I will cancel. The company that manages the community wireless internet connnectivity will get each computers MAC address so each can access their network to get on the internet.
My objective is to have each computer able to print to the wireless printer, as well on get on the internet. I have been told I will need to purchase a wireless router, to take the place of my current router. Is this true? If so, why is that necessary?
