I just went into the store and bought the first one I saw. Hook-up was a breeze. You just want to set up a password so not just anybody can jump on. You aren't MickyDees, after all.
My neighbor also has a "guest" account on his. It is also password protected. Since I have my own I don't really care.
My iPod was my first wireless device (that is when the nephews told me I "needed" a router...).
The Nexus tablet seems to be much more aggressive at finding a signal.
Anything in your house should cover your immediate area.
My biggest rationalization for all this gadgetry is I never had a 2nd PC to set up in the garage. Now I can take my tablet out there when I need to refer to online instructions on how to do something.
