New to Home networking

$

I am new to home networking.

I have already connected 2 pcs (wired) and a laptop and a 9" tablet (wirelessly) to a hg659b modem supplied by vodafone in my house.

I have several pcs (networked together) out in the workshop which is about 15-18mts away from my modem (as the crow flys).

I am considering two options for connecting the "workshop" to the "house".

Firstly, connect the "workshop" pcs via cable to an rta1025wv6 setup as a wap and have the hg659b 'look' for the rta1025w. I am using an rta1025w as it is what is available at the present moment.

Secondly, put in a wireless ethernet card into one of the "workshop" pcs and then networking the other "workshop" pcs to it. Then have the hg659b wirelessly connect to the "workshop" pc with the wireless ethernet card.

Unfortunately connecting the "workshop" to the "house" via a cable is not an option.

Any help (or criticism) would be greatly appreciated.

TIA
