| You will need to talk to an ISP or mobile telephone provider who provide wireless broadband in your area.

| Why not Comcast broadband, as it sounds like you already have it? I have Comcast and am wireless, and have no problems. I assume you have an Airport card in your Ti Book. You'd connect a wireless router to your Comcast modem, then surf from it. Any brand will do, some better, some not so good.

| It doesn't matter if your ISP offers wireless internet or not -- the ISP is not what determines whether you can "go wireless" or not. The only thing you need to "go wireless" is a router that offers wireless connectivity. Check out the D-Link DIR-625, or the Linksys WRT54G router, or even Apple's AirPort Extreme... all will work with your existing internet connection and allow both wired and wireless computers to connect.
