Do I need bridging for wireless?

I got a Netgear DG834G wireless router and Asus Wifi card. I have it connect and running okay but the only way I got it to connect is by bridging my Wireless Network Connection with Local Area Connection.

Is the bridging neccessary? Cant I just connect without bridging?
 
If you would explain what ?Local Area Connection? means in your case, and how do you connect to the Internet.

It would help to Help you.!
 
Well I connect to the internet using DSL.

I am not sure what Local Area Network means but when I was setting up my router, I used wired and I think that was what set up the Local Area Network. Then I set up my wireless connection and I had to bridge the two to use my router/internet. The thing is now every single time I boot up, there is the local area network icon in my system tray saying that the cable is unplug. I would rather it not be there and the only way I can think of doing that is disabling my local area network but the moment I disable it, I can no longer use the network because it is bridged.
