I have an old wired network using a:
Netgear DS104 hub and 2 netgear FA310TX PC cards and a DSL modem.
card specs: http://shop.cyberstorage.com/product...roducts_id=314

I've just ordered a:
Netgear Wireless Bundle - WGR614 Router AND WG511 Wireless PC card (so that
I can get my laptop in the 'loop'.)
router specs: http://www.buy.com/retail/product.as...2463&loc=14683

Question:
Can I use the old FA310TX PC cards (in the 2 desktops) with the new WGR614
Router??

-----
I've also read that I will not need the hub anymore and that I also won't
need any of the "internet connection software" anymore. IE: WinPoet, Zone
Alarm, and whatever else is there?

Question:
What should I uninstall/delete and in what order? (before or after new
wireless install?)
Or should I just disable?
anything else?

I useWin98se.

Thanks for any help or advice.

Hi,

The WGR614 router you pointed to has 4 built-in wired ports, i.e., it has a
built-in "switch" so you won't need the hub anymore. You can re-use the hub
elsewhere, e.g., if you have a room where you only have one network port in
the wall, but want more than 1 wired connection. For example, I have 1
network port in the wall to my library, but sometimes 3-4 computers, so I
plug a hub into the wall, and run cables to the other computers (my router's
in the basement).

And yes, the wired network cards that you had already should work fine...
