What do you mean with the computers going "wireless"? It doesn't sound
like you have AirPort cards for any of them. Or do you?
I wouldn't bother investing in a wireless network if all you're
sharing is a dial-up connection!!! Your outlay (assuming you have none
of the hardware) will be $200-300, depending on what choices you
make--I'd rather spend the money on a high speed internet connection
for a year than on a wireless network (if I had to choose).
Eric.
