Solve : Access Point vs. Router?

1.	Solve : Access Point vs. Router?
Answer» I have a second COMPUTER in my house that I want to CONNECT wirelessly to my INTERNET connection. I have ACCESS to a free access POINT if I want one, but I know a router is what most people use. If I understand what I have read on the internet, an access point is a router without the security and switching capabilities. So why is the access point more expensive? Is there some reason why I should buy a router when I could use an access point that won't cost me anything? Thanks for your help.
