Wireless control of observatory gear

I bought a Netscape wireless I guess its a local area network modem a while ago but never implemented it.

I got it so I could run my observatory desktop computer from inside the house with a laptop so I didn't have to walk back and forth several times a night.

My laptop has built in wireless and is Vista, the desktop is XP.

Is it just a matter of plugging in the wireless router unit (looks like a hub) and then detecting the wireless signal in Vista through control panel or is there more to it?

How do you then get access to the observatory computers programs that are running (CCDSoft, The Sky)?

Greg.
