Home networking between desktop and 1 laptop

Hi,

I have BT Broadband using a BT Voyager 105 ADSL USB Modem. I want to set up a network at home where I can share this internet connection and also be able to use instant messenger services between the 2 computers on the network is this possible?

I am thinking of getting this wireless router:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/...840806-9700726

Would that be compatible with my BT broadband internet connection?
I have a Dell desktop and Dell laptop and at present the desktop has the connection to the internet and the laptop doesn't.

How would I set up this wirless router is it is suitable do I just follow instructions and away I go or is it more complex? Also, will I still need my BT Voyager modem?

Cheers
