Help setting up home Wi-fi Network

    I've got Broadband in (EsatBT) and want to share the connection between 2 PC's.

    I've managed to come by a Linksys WET 11 which works, a Apple Airport Graphite but I can't seem to get it to work, and 2 Lucent wavelan silver wi-fi cards (I had thought of getting a pci card with a pcmcia adapter on it, but Peats said it'd be cheaper to buy a new PCI wi-fi card.

    What do I need to set-up a wi-fi network in the house so that either PC can use the broadband. I'm assuming I'll need a Wireless access point to plug the broadband modem into but amn't sure what this entails (I'm a UNIX head so networking has never really been my strong point).

    I'm sure someone else must have a similar set-up and would appreciate all advice on what I should do.

    Cheers
