New computer 28T32B7GA2OAC

I bought a new laptop. I have a desk top computer that has the Netgear software installed. I got the laptop connected to WiFi ok, but want to get rid of the desktop computer. If I disconnect the desktop computer from my network, will the WiFi still work? Do I need to install the Netgear software on the laptop? Do I need a new router?

No.

the computer doesn't control the wifi. the router does. 

You can always log in through the browser, you don't need the genie software. 

 

What router do you have?
