Cause remember Quote: "Technically Challenged here"

Maybe the best solution is to just get a wireless router, eg D-Link 524UP, Linksys WRT54Gx & put the ethernet WAN port for that into the 302G & then hook up his desktop to the LAN side of that & then get the wireless bit going for the notebook. The default settings for most routers should be OK, as long as the router uses a different LAN address to the ADSL modem.

Failing that, if you don't mind using wires to connect the laptop, just find an port ethernet switch - that should be much cheaper & no setup issues to speak of.

dont know how to though, this may help
