“Still a little confused, do i have the right idea? Apparently this usb is used so that a user can plug in to their desktop computer in a separate area of their modem and router, that doesn't have WiFi adapter, giving it a WiFi adapter? Also my router isn't a netgear, is that fine?”

No. The USB adapter plugs in to your desktop so you can connect *without* wires to your wireless router over air waves. This adapter will connect to non-NETGEAR routers. Manufacturers tend to optimize speed and connectivity for their own products, but products from other vendors will still work equally or almost as well.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You plug this into any computer that does not have wireless capabilities, to give it wireless capabilities. Since it uses standards-based 802.11a/b/g/n communication protocols, it will work with any other wireless router (non-netgear) that supports 802.11a/b/g/n.
