Where your Dad's modem sits need to go a wireless router, like one of these:
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/114307

Get one of them from ebuyer or pcworld.

Your dads computer will connect to that using a standard enthernert cable or RJ45. There are cheap and you probably already ahve one already being used to connect your dads computer to his current modem.

Then for you to connect to the wireless hub just buy one of these:

A wireless USB adapter.

Hope i have helped :)
Sam
