imac wifi internet sharing

my home has 3 wired imacs. I would like to set up wifi internet sharing on all 3 devices.
Are there any issues with using the same ssid and and password for all three devices?

All you need is a wireless router whose signal is strong enough to reach the locations of all 3 devices. They can all connect to the same SSID, that's fine. However, if you have wired connections to all of them, and everything is working properly, I'd tell you there's really not much of a reason to change them to wireless.

i'm using the imacs themselves as access points by sharing their WIRED connections through their airports. the question i have is whether i can SET the same SSID on all three imacs
