One way (and there are several ways to do this) is to get an access point (any netgear or linksys will do) connect it to your router on a dedicated port and setup rules on your router as to where traffic from the wireless LAN is allowed to go. The benefit here is that you segment your wireless connections from your internal network except for what you allow through. You can permit wireless access to the Internet if you want. I would treat the wireless LAN as an untrusted segment and firewall it accordingly. IMHO that is probably the best way to setup wireless access.
