Firstly, I'd like to apologise if any of my questions seem ridiculous. I've just started learning about Wireless Access and there are still a lot of things I dont know. I hope that somebody could shed some light on my queries.

I have an ASDL line and I'm thinking of buying the Vigor 2200USB Router. I think this is the best router for me as I am newbie and it doesnt need much tweaking to get started. I am looking for a wireless access point hardware to connect the router to my laptop. I assume that I would need a wireless PCMCIA card for my laptop. I would like to set up a wireless link to my girlfrinds place (which is about 200-300 meters from my house) so that we could share the ADSL line. Is this possible?

Please correct anything that I may assume or think that is wrong. Which wireless access point (hopefully one that has a auto voltage converter because the voltage here is different from the States) and wireless PCMCIA card should I use and how much will that cost. All suggestions and opinions are welcome. Please help.

Thanks in advance.
