Dear network experts,

I need to have a few computers to share the data and Internet
connectivity.

How do I do it if I have:
- Mac computer & 2 Windows laptops
- Cable modem
- Wireless Airport router (only Mac can use it)

It is a simple network just to store my data at one place (under
100GB), back it up and access remotely from outside of the office area.

Please advice!
Thank you.
