Question regarding Wireless Ethernet Bridge.

I have 2 PCs at home that are somewhat far apart from each other. My main PC is hooked up to the internet with cables, using Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router (model:WRT54G). The other PC is too far away from my main PC to even think of running wires, thus I would like to use wireless method of connecting to the internet.

So here's my question... I was able to dig up Linksys Wireless Ethernet Bridge WET11 that I used to use for my PS2 Online gaming experience, which I do not use anymore. I was wondering if I can use this device to connect my 2nd PC to the internet wirelessly. I've been trying to setup wireless home networking with little success today. It was under my impression that I can use the Ethernet Bridge as if it was wireless ethernet card, but I'm probably wrong on this matter.

If this is not possible, what do I need to purchase to make my wireless home networking work with my current router?

Any kind of feedbacks and help is much appreciated in advance.
Thanks.
 
You can't bridge a wireless connection with a wired one. It just doesn't work.
If you are using windows xp, goto control panel>>Network Setup Wizard. Complete it using the correct information, and it sets everything up for you.
