Buford,
The local ISP (now going wireless) should either:
1. Make the equipment that you need available (at your cost), or
2. Tell you exactly what you need to obtain and how to install it
If they can't do either of the above then they either are clueless
about wireless or don't really care to offer reliable service.
In both cases, you won't be able to rely on them being around
(in wireless) for very long.
