Connecting upstairs laptop to router?

I have managed to get hold of a 20 meter straight patch lead from the IT bloke at work and want to run it through the ceiling into the loft conversion so I can connect my router (Netsys wrt54g) which is downstairs to a laptop in the loft. This laptop currently connects to the net via an NTL dial-up account which I'll probably have to uninstal.

I just wondered how easy it is to get things up and running so the upstairs lappy shares my BB connection. Do I have muck around with any 'wizards' or is it pretty straight forward.

any advice or step by step would be much appreciated.
