Hi,
I am a newbie to this wireless world.
May I know is it possible to setup a wireless AP device in a LAN environment which is using a proxy server and enabling the notebook to surf thru the wireless AP and proxy?
Please enlighten.
Rgds.

Wireless is essentially just an alternative physical connection. A properly designed and configured AP should function like an Ethernet switch and be transparent to proxy servers.
By analogy to postal mail, as long as properly addressed packets show up in its mailbox, the proxy doesn't care whether they got there by truck, airplane, or unicycle.
