I am considering DSL from my internet provider.
I use Linux and my wife uses Windoze.

Is it possible to network the two via wireless router and modem or if not
what is the best approach to get both machines on DSL?

It is not absolutely necessary to be using both computers at the same time
to access the internet and therefore probably not necessary to network
them. If this is the case, is it possible to hook them up separately?
