what hardware, communications media or software would i need? and what do i need to configure? please help… thanks a lot!!!

i’m planning to create a LAN and i’m decided to use windows2003 server but i cannot connect win98 in it.

Trying to do the following: DSL Modem > 24-port Switch > Linksys WRT54GS wireless router. I also have a windows 2003 server that handles all the network stuff (DNS, DCHP and so on). In other words, the Linksys wireless router is connected to the 24-port switch in gateway mode… Is it possible to do that? Wireless devices can connect to the wireless router, but they can not access the internet or ping the router… wireless signal is strong and it even ask for the wireless password key…
Anyone know of a guide or have similar experiences? Do I need to tell windows 2003 server that the wireless router is there and it should know it? Help Please :)
Thank you for the answer so far… but I would really prefer to add the wireless router to the switch… Is that a possible option? Cheers

I have a Windows Me and Windows 2000 Server Family. As I try to connect Windows Me via switching hub to 2000 Server, it asks me to enter a network password. The message box says, You must supply a password to make this connection: Resource: \\MAIN\IPC$ Password: (Note that it only ask me to enter the password. Resource is already supplied by the system.) Does the firewall of the Server has an effect here? Guys kindly help me with this… Your help will be greatly appreciated! :) Thanks…

I have it plugged into my IBM Thinkpad and into the wall and it doesn’t come up, I think I might have to update the drivers to make it work but I am not sure where I have to go to do that.
