Making a G4, G3s and a Wallstreet PB all broadband wireless.

Hi, without going down the Airport route, what would be the simplest way
to make a G4, two G3s and a Wallstreet PB all broadband wireless? I
alreayd have an ethernet modem router. I imagine the desktops would get
a PCI card each and the Wallstreet would get a PCMIA card. The ethernet
router modem would then be supplemented with one of those little boxes
with an aerial sticking up (it's getting technical) Am I on the right
track. Could someone possibly list different option savailable to me etc
and what specific kit to get? Thanks,

Sounds like you have the plan. I would try to purchase PCI and PCcards
with native Mac drivers if OSX does not see them on its own. You want
to set up WAP security on the "little box with an aerial" also known as
a wireless router. In that box you want to turn off DHCP serving and
NAT serving so those functions continue to be handled by the ethernet
modem router.
