Hooking up new computer with existing Verizon DSL

Hello, Bought a new desktop PC today, with Windows 7, replacing my old PC with Windows XP. Some **bleep** questions that I hope you experts can help me with. Will I simply be able to hook everything up on my new PC as on my existing PC and I'm good to go? Will I need to run my Verizon DSL set-up CD (which I'm not sure I have)? Will my home wireless network (2 laptops) be affected? Thanks, everyone.

Just hook up the computer like you would with any other computer. No need to run the software as your PC will use DHCP to obtain the needed information from your router. Your wireless network will be unaffected.

I'll be trying it out tomorrow.

I appreciate your super-quick reply.
