Can someone help please?

I want to hook two computers up using the same DSL modem. One computer has windows 98 and the other windows XP. They both have ethernet cards. I want to use wireless to share the internet between the two computers. What do I need to purchase and how do I set it up? Thanks

You need to buy a wireless router. I have the Linksys Wireless G 54Mbps Broadband Router (WRT54G) and love it. I have no problems with it and is supports WAP. To use the computer wireless you need to buy wireless cards. Linksys also makes these the Linksys Wireless-G PCI Ethernet Adapter (WMP54G), also another great product. If and when you buys these post back and I will help you setup it all up. Hope that this helps.
