    Talking Wireless Network setup? Help plz

    hi there, i've got about £140 max, to hook up a wireless network in my house. It will need to be fairly quick, as its going to be used for LAN Gaming, and internet sharing. This will be used between 2 computers, one upstairs, one downstairs. The wireless router will need to handle my BT Broadband aswell, unless it can take my usb adsl BT modem. Also, i've heard problems about security, so i will need it to be pretty secure aswell, as i may be sending files across the network that are sensitive, cheers.

    If you use a wireless network for LAN gaming, there will be higher latencies than a wired network. If you still wanna go wireless, get a decent brand 54g wireless ADSL router, and 2 pci wireless cards - then enjoy yourself setting them up!
    Old puter - still good enuff till I save some pennies!
