Hi!

Currently I'm on wired network for my broadband with a single PC connection and, I'm thinking of migrating to wireless LAN as now I have two PCs that need to share the internet connection.

I would like to get some help on the setup of the wireless LAN and, I got couple of questions that I need some answer for that.

1. Do I need to have a access point if the operating range are within 50 meters with the router located in the main hall and, both PCs in a room?

2. Does wired and wireless connection could be coexist in the network with the wireless router? Which mean, one of the PC on wireless network and the other one on wired network.

3. Any recommendation on the wireless router that worth of consideration.


Thanx!

1. No, you do not need an access point.

2. Yes, wired and wireless connection can coexist on the network.

3. Instead of using the infrastructure option on the wireless cards, pick the one for computer to computer... :)
