My network currently consists of two pc's running into a Linksys BEFSR41
cable/dsl router which is then fed by a Toshiba cable modem for Internet
access. What I'd like to do is make the network "wireless" so not only will
those two pc's remain wired but a pc in the next room can access the
internet AND my daughter's new laptop which has "wi-fi" can also use the
Internet. Any suggestions besides "trashing" the current Router and buying a
new "wireless" one? I guess I'll have to install an "access point" in that
pc in the "next room" too?
One idea I was thinking of was to install an "access point" in one of the
currently "wired" pc's. Is this possible? I mean, can you simultaneously be
accessing the Internet from that "wired" pc AND be accessing the Internet
from a pc that's connected via the "AP"? Would there be a problem with IP
addresses? Thanks for any help.
