Just a router, ask at a computer shop how good it needs to be,
check that the router has a strong enough signal to reach the computer.
And don't forget to make it a secured wireless network so you don't have other people logging on to it..

A wireless router and a wireless connection/card on your computers. You connect the wireless router to the DSL modem with a Ethernet cable (check the modem users manual). Then the wireless router talks to the modem for the computers that connect to it. For the most part any router will be ok...but check the DSL modem manual to see.
