Default HELP: Setting up Wi-Fi Lan for the 1st Time

Hey guys.

I just bought a Linksys Wireless-G Modem Router ADSL WAG54G (analog)

Link: http://www.dsl-warehouse.co.uk/produ...=WAG54G&pm=877

I have a Wi-Fi motherboard on PC1:

Mainboard ASUS P5AD2 Deluxe

And i got a Wireless-G USB WUSB54G for my laptop (PC2).

So, here's the thing. Im new to wi-fi, and i would like to know if its possible to use the router without being connected to the internet, like a normal router without modem. Also, how should i do this?

Im aiming to have both the PC1 and the PC2 connected via radio to the router. how to do this? or should i have at least one wire cable connected to my router?

Here's a rough view of what i want:

---- = Wire
~~ = Radio


PC1~~~~~~~~
~
PC2~~~~~~~~ WI-Fi Router 1------------- ADSL Internet
~
PC3~~~~~~~~

Both my OS's are WinXP, freshly installed.


I guess its pretty simple, but i've tried it without success.
If you guys know a good tutorial or site that teaches this, please help me out. Thanks
