Simply get a wireless card for your computers.

Connect the Broad Band to the System in the Upstairs. Add a Second Network Card and Connect a cable between the Upstairs and downstairs computer. Now enable internet connection sharing. Now all the data would go through the computer in the upstairs.
Still need help get back to me.

It might depend on how far you are from the BT exchange. You have to be very close to get the full 16Meg. I live 2Kms from my exchange and with an 8Meg connection I was told I would only get about 5.5Meg.
