Nothing special about wireless.  To setup a USB mouse and keyboard:

If you are not set up yet to use USB in general, run modconf and load
one of usb-uhci or usb-ohci from kernel/drivers/usb/host.  Which one
depends on your chipset.  Also, load ehci-hcd for USB2.0 devices.

Run modconf.  From the kernel/drivers/input section, load mousedev and
keybdev.  The following modules should have been loaded implicitly at
this point, check the output of lsmod to verify:  hid, usbcore,
usbmouse.  If any is missing, go back into modconf and load it.

That should be all that is required for the keyboard.  For the mouse,
you need to update X, gpm or whatever to get mouse input from
/dev/input/mice.  To update X, assuming you are not using gpm, add the
following section to your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4:

Section "InputDevice"
	Identifier	"USB Mouse"
	Driver		"mouse"
	Option		"SendCoreEvents"
	Option		"Device"		"/dev/input/mice"
	Option		"Protocol"		"ImPS/2"
	Option		"Emulate3Buttons"	"False"
	Option		"ZAxisMapping"		"4 5"
EndSection

Also, add the following line to your 'Section "ServerLayout"' in
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4:
	InputDevice	"USB Mouse"
