Ok now let's see the OS I would go with a newer version of Linux like redhat but if you don't know much about Linux then go with Microsoft. As far as connection I would go with cable or DSL that would be what I would get. About wireless or cable if you can do it nice and neat i would use cable just for the simple fact that I don't know much about wireless.

If you choose Linux here is a good link to learn about home networks www.redhat.com/apps/search/results.html

If you must choose Microsoft here is a good link for you http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/e...ies/july30.asp

Good Luck!
