I'm new to wireless and have a different need than typical home or apartment dweller.
Everything I've seen for consumers is designed for a wired broadband input that routes wireless to various pc's. I'm looking to do the opposite.
I need to have a sort of wireless "base station" that would be my access to a wireless network. Then to that base (a router I guess) I will run wired/LAN connections to a 3 or 4 pc's. Or I could run wired to a couple and have short range wireless to another 1 or 2.
Possible?
The exact setup will be on a boat that receives wireless broadband from the marina. W/in the boat I can lay cables to a couple of cabins. It would be nice to be wireless from the "base" to a laptop in the cockpit, but I could run a cable there, too.
Into my "base station: I would also plug in my internet telephone.
