Neither of them are right sections. Chit Chat section doesn't mean you dump anything there.

Wireless adsl modem+router (access point) - Technically I might be wrong but its a single unit in which you plugin the phone wire having broadband. I have Netgear which costed me 7K Rs (6 mons back). Could be very less now. Works like a charm.

All the laptops are supposed to be wireless enabled. i.e centrino, core duo

Go for BSNL/MTNL broadband. The results are good as compared to other service providers.
__________
Total cost

Router(access point) - 5-7K

New Broadband connection - 2k initial fees (variable)

1k monthly - e.g Unlimited plan in bsnl dataone

If your laptops are not wirless enabled... then there are ways to convert it into one. I m not in a position to comment on it.

Is that true? I mean, you don't need a base station if you use that modem?
Can someone verify this for me please?
