1. Yes, however, you must first have an ISP (internet service provider) such as Verizon or Time Warner, to allow your wireless router to work (that's what it runs off of).

2. Rates depend on the company and such, so pick an ISP and check out the prices. :)

A wireless router will allow you to transmit your Internet connection wirelessly, to any number of computers. Your laptop and desktop will both share your Internet connection, and they can access the Internet simultaneously. You must already have an Internet connection for a wireless router to work; it does not replace your Internet service provider.

You can buy a wireless router from any computer store or website. You are not required to buy it from your ISP, though they might offer them. They cost about $40-80. I recommend the Linksys WRT54G, which is powerful and will last many years without needing replacement.
