i don't have any online games. but if I did, i'd ensure my router is placed appropriately so my wiii is connected at 54mbps and nix unneeded cables.

I don't see why speed would be a factor. For 99% of users, wireless speed > internet speed.

It's just a standard regular network cable. You can buy them at pretty much any place that sells computer stuff.

Right. But once you get the network adapter, all you need is regular network cable.
