I tried to PM Tikker and he hasn't been on here for a while and I need to get an answer before I leave work. On a tech scale rating my questions are probably about a 2 out of 10 in difficulty, just need someone with experience. Lemme know and I'll send a PM.

Whats up? Tikker is much better at that stuff than I am, but I can try and help.

I would honestly help, but I just plain don't like you.

weird, I didn't get any notification of a PM waiting, sorry
long story short
plug the wireless router into the modem (LAN port)
plug existing PC into any of the 4 WAN ports
then log into the router (192.168.1.1) and set up the wireless portion (ssid and encryption [WEP/WPA])
for the 2nd pc you'll need a wireless nic of some sort (usb or pci, doesn't matter. usb easier to work with in some ways)
install it, and add matching SSID and encryption to the nic
should be gtg then
