Completely befudled (well only slightly) by the world of wireless networking. Trying to convince my parents to get broadband but with five computers in the house we'll need to network them and wirelessly would be the best option.

The coputer OSs are:
Windows XP SP2 x 4
Windows Media Center Edition

However, I will be upgrading my brand spanking new computer to Vista whenever it becomes a more practical option.

There only needs to be 4 computers networked together at any one time as I wouldn't be using my laptop all that much in the house and the main computer would be my dad's media center os computer (Even though my computer is the highest in pecking order power wise :) ). Sizewise, the house isn't overly big so even lowish ranges ~50 feetish should be more than enough.

Price range is basically the optimum bang for buck.

Can anyone tell me what sort of hardware I should be looking at here, or if it would even work?

Thanks for the help.

This isn't actually a bump as such it's just that I've managed to narrow down the spec a wee bit. I think what I need is an ADSL router that supports at least four wireless connections from various computers.

Can anyone recommend any piece of hardware that would suit my needs. Would greatly appreciate the help as I'm really lost when it comes to wireless technology, it's all up in the air I'm afraid.
