Default 2 Machines 2 OS - 2 Networks??????

I would like to remote desktop a Dell 266 with dear legacy programs from my
Vista Home Premium Gateway. The Dell's OS is Windows 2000 Pro. The gateway
is on a wireless net. I cannot find wireless hardware for the Dell. Is it
possible to set up a wired net between the two machines still keeping the
Gateway's wireless function? Is it possible to remote desktop using a
crossover ethernet or to I need a router?

Thank you,
Jorge I
