Wi-Fi Setup

[Dolly]

Morning (Europe) Peeps,

I Have 2 laptops and would like to set up a Wi-Fi home network!
What do I need to buy?

I think I have to get to cards for the laptops, and a Wi-Fi modem/router?

What I want to ask is what to I need i order to have the Modem/Router somethwer NOT attached to any of the laptops and hence be able to move the laptops around freely with out having to have the modem attached to the one, and hence only the 1 laptop will be able to move!

Can this be done? I have dsl and not cable if it makes any difference!

Thx in advance.
