Can WRT54G and XP with WINDOWS/7 on the same network?

I run a wireless home network using a LINKSYS

WRT54G 2.4GH, connecting a desktop computer and a

laptop, both running WINDOWS/XP SP3. The

laptop recently crashed and I need to replace

soon. The office is running OK, but is also quite

old and will probably be replaced enough

soon.



I have a big thing in area shopping

so I did not have a strong sense of the price

involved in a replacement. Assuming that I have

can not replace the two

systems more or less to the

Moreover, because of the costs, I probably need

to replace the notebook now and wait to replace

the desktop computer. Assuming that this sequence:

-There will be some problems of network hardware

to make the new book can co-exist with the

WRT54G? Wouldn't not possible (and smarter) to

replace the WRT54G now with something that could

be used now and in the future when the

Desktop is replaced?

-Can I get a laptop that comes with

XP and is expandable (at reasonable cost) to

7? Or that it will be possible to run with 7 on the

laptop while I am still running XP the

desktop computer? I don't think that 7 running on the desktop

is an option, because it has a limited memory

Although I suppose I could upgrade the memory.

Should I still who?

Should I cross-post this to others

WINDOWS

Forum?

TIA,

Hello

Cable/DSL wireless router are stand alone devices that are supported on any computer with Ethernet networking capabilities (cable or wireless).

All versions of Windows + Apple + Linux may run together when connecting to a router as the WRT54, and/or routers newer wireless for the end user.
