What are some wireless internet providers?

There is no best wireless laptop provider. Wireless capability is a feature included in most new laptops, but they would all use either 802.11g or 802.11n. The best wireless you can get built into a new laptop now is 802.11n (or just wireless n). You will get the most speed and range with the N. If by provider you are talking about wireless broadband cards for laptops, the best bet would probably be AT&T

How can you stop movies from buffering on your laptop?

Either the website is busy (From a special occasion, i.e. Superbowl), trying to give everyone the movie.... or it's the internet router. If it is wireless, you may want to upgrade it to something better. If it still does it, it's not the internet company, it's probably your little wireless internet modem. Try getting a new one, find one in an affordable range, and find everything you need.


What special hardware and software is required for a network?

Since you were able to ask that question on the Internet I am assuming you already have access. If you want to hook up a wireless network then you need a router and a wireless network card in your system. The cable that you currently have to get on the internet will go into the router then another cable will come out of the router to the internet. The router will come with software for you to load. It is really not as hard a process as people think. You will set up a password on your wireless internet so only the people you want to get on it will be able to.
