Hi @John8,

 

Yes,  you may still use your Windows Vista computer to get connected to wifi. If this is a desktop computer, you'll need a usb wifi adapter if you can't run a cable. 

 

All wireless adapters should work as long as it can detect the Wi-Fi connection that the modem is broadcasting. You can look into the reviews of the brand and model that you are looking to purchase. Customers' experience on the product should help you decide on what to buy.
