Default Running wired and wireless connection on different versions of Windows at the same time.

My grandad has a PC loaded with Windows ME, this is currently on a
wired connection (via USB)
He's recently bought a laptop with Vista and wants this to be
connected wirelessly to his modem. I'm basically looking for a router
than can handle both wired (via usb) and wireless connections, that
also supports ME and Vista. Is this possible? Do I need a specific
type of router? Any help would be really appreciated, thanks in
advance.

Yes, You will need to purchase a Wireless Router. You then can connect
through a wired connection as well as connect wireless. Look at the
Linksys brand.
