    If you have a broadband router, you still need a modem (unless of course you have a router with a built-in modem).

    The difference between a wireless router and a broadband router is pretty much what they sound like: one you have to directly plug a computer to and the other (wireless) you can connect to without using a cable (but you’ll need a wireless adapter on the computer that you want network access for so that it can connect to the wireless router).
