With this device can I connect my older PC via wifi

300 Mbps Wireless USB 2.0 WiFi Network Card LAN Adapter Dongle Laptop PC | eBay

My older XP PC has no form of wifi connection as far as I can see...its connected at present via an Ethernet cable to a Virgin Super Hub,

If I bought one of these dongles are they an efficient way to connect an older PC to the net via wifi and would I need anything else to go with it,

More of an experiment really as my internet has gone slow...its ok when first connected but after about 15mins starts to slow and scrolling pages become jerky,

I am just wondering if maybe my Ethernet board could be at fault...hence trying a dongle to eliminate it.

Nick.
