Xbox Live broadband setup questions (wireless)

Hi,

Hope you can help, my firm has offered to pay for broadband at home . I have a desktop (2.4Ghz P4 running XP Pro) upstairs, a laptop (1Ghz running win 2000 pro) with a wireless (802.11b I think) pcmcia card, and would also like to connect the xbox to broadband.

I will probably go with BT for the broadband (NTL is my other option, but I have had loads of problems with them in the past).

My desktop is about 8 metres away from a phone socket (I use an extension lead for my dial up at the moment and disconnect the extension lead when not in use), I would like to set up a wireless network so that all the machines can take advantage of the broadband connection.

Could someone please advise what kit I would need to achieve this - or point me in the direction of a suitable web site.

Thanks in anticipation.

Colin
