Do you have the ihub?You need a wireless ethernet adapter to plug internet to the ihub.Hard wire is better to the ihub.

not one special wireless router is needed. they all will work. there are different model numbers. such as g,r or any other letter. speed type just allow it to transfer fast and distance.linkeys or others are just fine.

In order to get your ihub to work with wireless router you need to buy internet bridge, to be honest i wouldn't bother with wireless wired connection is way better anyways and cheaper.
