Setting up a wireless router is pretty simple and should be a quick process. You will need to read the instructions on your router, connect it to one computer, right down the password and then type the password into all your other computers and it will be set up.

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.

A wireless router is a device in a wireless local area network (WLAN) that determines the next network point to which a packet should be forwarded toward its destination. A wireless router works in the same way as the router in a hard-wired home or business local area network (LAN), but allows greater mobility for notebook or portable computers. The individual computers are equipped with small wireless transceivers that can be plugged into either a Universal Serial Bus (USB) port or a PC Card slot.

Will a wireless router work when it is connected to a desktop computer that doesn't have a wireless card?

Are you asking if the computer will get internet? If so... Yes. as long as the router is connected to a modem via network cable and also connected to the desktop computer via network cable.The computer will not connect to the wireless signal sent out by the router. Without a wireless card, it will only work if it is hard patched via network cable to a working modem. If you are asking if the wireless router will still work, even when its connected to a desktop computer with out a wireless card, the answer is also yes. and i this situation, a wireless card in the computer is completely irrelevant so I'm guessing this is not what you meant.
