I am using one of the higher powered wireless providers. I have an antenna on my roof that has the modem built into it. It then goes to my router Via a Cat5 cable (there is a power inserter on the line that provides power to the antenna via 2 unused lines in the Cat5) My 2 routers (1 standard and 1 wireless) are on my desk, with my 2 desktops hooked up via cat5 and my laptop, phone, and soon to be hooked up PS3 via wireless. The desktops could be wireless really easily, just get a wireless LAN adapter for the desktops. They have a couple of different types. 1 type is an antenna that will use a short cable to the LAN port, 1 is an antenna with a USB cable, and i have also seen one that plugs into a PCI slot on the motherboard. It has an antenna that is on the back side of the PC. The last one is the only true wireless. The Wireless access point (USB or Cat5 connection from the antenna) is what I intend to use in my living room for the PS3.
