I have windows xp but no wi - fi. I want to connect an Ipod with a wi - fi connection. What should I do?

I have ADSL internet. There is no wi - fi in control PANEL / NETWORK CONNECTIONS.  I don't want a wi - fi, just an ad - hoc (?) service connection to the ipod while in the House.  All the advice I have read assumes that there is already a wi - fi connection in the control panel / network connections.  What should I do?

But I want to keep the ADSL connection with the computer, doesn't have a Wi - Fi connection for the computer. That's what I thought, it's called an ad hoc wireless network.

You're misunderstanding things.  Installation of a router "will NOT change a Wi - Fi connection for the computer."  The computer will always connect to the Internet through your current DSL service.

The only iPod with wifi possibilities is the iPod Touch.  For this camera, wifi can be used to make video calls FaceTime to another iPhone or iPod Touch, or to connect to a wireless router or wireless (which in turn is connected to the Internet) access point to download media from the iTunes store or your iCloud account.  You can also stream media using AirPlay via a wifi connection.

The only thing that you can do it via wifi - explains the longer post of Richard Harper - is to connect to your computer to back up your iPod or sync it with iTunes.

You should buy a wireless router (as said Veritas Aequitas).  The router connects to your DSL modem (and so to the Internet).  Your computer will connect to the router by an Ethernet cable, because your computer does not have a wireless adapter) and your iPod connects to the router using the wifi.
