This is a link to a site with great info on home networking - Start there:

You will need:a
1. a "wireless router" that you can connect to the cable modem
2. a wireless adapter for each desktop - either a USB type that simply plugs into the PC or an internal PCI card that you mount inside the desktop. If the old computer is running Windows 98 or Me - check twice to confirm that the hardware/software can be used on those OLD systems.
Good Luck
