The only difference is that you need to setup wireless security and SSID broadcast and the encryption on your laptops needs to match the encryption format of your router, ie. WEP, WPA or even MAC addressing.
Older laptops don't have WPA, so you have to use the lowest common denominator (WEP), but as long as they're all the same, and they can actually get a signal then it should be ok.
The rest is the same as a wired lan.
