Right now I have 3 computers in my room, which is soon going to be 4. What's the piece of networking equipment called that enables all these to connect to a wireless network via one wireless adapter thingy? Sorry if I'm not making any sense, its really simple and I should know this but I've completely forgotten the name of it.
Thanks to anyone who can help, this is rather important.
Is it some kind of program or hardware ?
It's a piece of hardware.

Kind of. I already have a wireless router, I just need the piece of equipment that will allow me to connect 3 or 4 PC's together to share the same wireless thingy. I honestly have no clue what it's called anymore, I should know this!

Wireless Thingy?
Downstairs: Wireless Router connected to internet.
So I need to know what the 'Wireless Thingy' is actually called. Omniscient said I need another wireless router but I connected one up and couldn't find a way to connect it to my wireless router which is downstairs.
Bump, can anyone help please?

I believe what your trying to say is, you have multiple computers in your room, but only one Ethernet plug? You want to get a router. I have one in my room for this purpose.
EDIT: I have
this one
