If you already have an ethernet port (onboard or PCI) for your PC, check out
D-Link's DWL900AP+ or the DWL2000AP+. These items are external devices that
connect to your ethernet port and are configured via web browser. They can
be configured for various modes such as access points, bridge, adhoc peer or
infrastructure network client. WEP is handled by the device, so you don't
have to configure WEP on the PC. All the PC and OS see are a normal, wired,
network connection.
Best of luck,
