I am planning on upgrading my network to include wireless access for my laptop which has a built in Wireless Card. I was thinking of just uplinking a wireless router to my existing router so I could place the wireless router in my room (2nd floor) that way I can use the router as a hub to connect my desktop and my laptop when i want a wired connection.
The wireless router would be sitting about 2 1/2 ft from my desktop monitor and a few inches from a magnetical shielded speaker. The wireless router will be located beside an outside wall on the back of the house. Which is close proximity to where I will be using he laptop. I have no 2.4 GHZ phone and I also have to use the 802.11b method as that is what card my laptop has (also heard about too many probs with 2.4GHz).
I am planning on buing the Linksys EtherFast Wireless AP + Cable/DSL Router 4PT Switch.
Would there be any problems setting this up? and is this a good idea.
