I believe the Broadcom NetXtreme 57xx Gibabit Controller is not wireless.
What you need is a wireless router with at least a 1 port switch on the back. This is a good one for example:
http://www.linksys.c...FVisitorWrapper
To setup, instead of plugging in your Westell DSL to your desktop, you will take that line and plug it into the router. Then your desktop will also plug into the router(if you buy a router such as the one above, it will come with setup instructions). The router will also trasmit a wireless signal which your laptop can then pickup.
