Is there any such thing as a wireless USB port? I need to hook up a USB device (a webcam pointed at a fishtank) that is a hundred feet from the computer and router. What would be a good way to do this?

The camera might be an issue - I have two webcams, but I don't have $$ to get another camera, I was hoping there was some way to use the USB camera :(

There is no good way of doing this. The camera needs to be connected to a computer to work, so unless you have a laptop handy, that camera isn't going to get the job done. There are wireless 802.11b cameras available that might be a better solution...

There's probably much better ways, but you could pick up a cheap TV tuner card (I got one at Aldi for $69), then use a transmitting camera, or a video sender, and connect the receiver into the TV in card.
