Concrete walls are one the worst things for wireless to get through effectively. But befroe you try to do that, are you sure that your ISP allows this kind of thing?

Get a wireless router or AP and try it is all I can tell you, but it does sound like it will be a hard run.

I agree...

Ideally you should plug desktops in. I've found that wireless on desktops don't work nearly as well as wireless on laptops (since laptops were built to use wireless and desktops aren't).

Make sure you lock the wireless router down with encryption, that way no one else can use your internet without your permission.
