Upgrade a older Home PC to wireless

Last response: in Wireless Networking

Had to move my modem and wireless router to the basement. I have a PC wired to that setup in the basement and have a laptop we use in the kitchen via wireless.

I have another PC upstairs that I would also like to access the internet. The router is a NetGear and the PC is a older Gateway 700xl I think.

What kind of adapter would I need to make this happen? Two story house and router is in basement. Didn't know if I needed something stronger to span that distance.

I'm in the room upstairs now with the laptop and I still have full strength. So it seems the signal won't be a problem.

Can I save some money getting one with less antennas or isn't it that much less? If I could go with less could you point me to one on newegg?
