Many ways to skin the cat, but make sure you have the right cat.
What you mainly need to do, if you're going to use a laptop in this
system, is make sure that the brand/model PCMCIA card is reported to
work well/easily with Linux. And you might as well use the same brand
for all the wireless parts.
The minimum setup is your access point connected to your server and a
wireless modem on the PC that needs to connect to it. You might as well
buy a combo wired/wireless access point.
I bought a Netgear AP and PCMCIA card and this was very easy on both
ends (using madwifi for the card). Start looking for sales on these, no
reason to pay full price.
