Yes you will need a wireless router.
802.11B G or N... most stores push 802.11N these days for the range+speed but all you really need is a 802.11G if you want to just go online.

Most of the major brands of routers are pretty good and reliable including Netgear, Dlink, and Linksys. Avoid Belkin and Airlink.
