In order to create an effective Wi-FI hotspot in your home or place of business you will need the following:

1.) A broadband internet connection, such as DSL or cable.

2.) A wireless router, Linksys makes a decent one but the brand is not really relevant for our purposes.

3.) Your laptop must have a wireless adapter on it. If it did not come with one, you can purchase one that will plug in to a USB port.

4.) That should do it, though configuring one can be tricky if you've never done it before. Post if you need some more help with it.

Ipod internet wontvwork

I'm not completely sure about what you said, but if you are having problems getting on your iPod to browse Internet/email etc.? You do not need a server (e.g. Cell phone type) to get online but you do for the Internet. That should be who ever you have your wifi under, for ex. AT&T Sprint or similar. Go to your Settings icon, then tap wifi and make sure that your wifi name is listed (whatever name you gave it when it was set up). Also make sure that your password is correct. Most wifi's even some Hot Spots will require a password, the hot spot should say what the general PW is. If those are set a d working you shouldn't have any problem either browsing or checking email. If you have more specific question than please post, without YouTube. If you are using another device to record the YouTube video then check those settings on that device to check your iPod.

How to get wifi

First you need a WiFi wireless card or an USB WiFi adapter.
This will allow you to connect to a free WiFi hot spot location such as MacDonalds, Starbucks etc.
If you want to setup your own wireless network at home the you need a wireless router and then configure the wireless card/adapter in your computer with the router's wireless settings.

SETTING UP A BROADBAND CONNECTION
First you need to decide what type of broadband andInternet service you require and these are -
1. DSL that uses your existing telephone line.
2. Cable that uses a cable service and can include a cable TV service.
3. A wireless 3G network which uses the mobile/cell phone network and can beseparate or combine with your cell phone account
Note - Combined services generally offer discount pricing and may include amodem/wireless router.

If you use a wireless router with the DSL or Cable Internet service and yourlaptop has a wireless card then you can also connect to the Internet at WiFihot spots like McDonalds, Star Bucks, the Airport etc.
If you use the wireless 3G wireless broadband service, then you can access theInternet anywhere where your ISP has 3G wireless coverage. You need to checkthe service coverage area where you need Internet service.
Once you decide what type of broadband your require, then you need to checkwith the various Internet Service providers to see if they can offer and thecost of the various plans.
Note the download limits and the associated additional costs if you exceed themonthly download limits. Once you sign up with a Internet Service provider,their documentation will include setting up instructions and/or installationCD.
