With the way you were using it and still want to use it you don't need
a gateway/router.  All you'd need is a switch (or hub if security
between your two machines is not an issue) between your ADSL modem and
your PCs.  One that supports wireless.

I would love to find a nice switch or hub that supports wireless - any suggestions would be most welcome.

You can use a separate access point if that's what you want, but if you want the functions of a router except for the routing, just don't use the WAN interface. That is, if you have public IP addresses for everything and want to use them, plug your dsl connection into one of the switch ports on the LAN side along with your own equipment and turn off the DHCP function. But be aware that you don't get any firewalling either.
