OK, I'm a networking dummy. I just got a wireless router (wrt54g, used) for home. I already have my webserver/router linux box set up quite nicely, and would rather not disturb it, but I want the laptops to be able to have internet wirelessly. How do I set this up?
Currently, I have to NICs on the desktop webserver/router. One goes to the cable modem, the other to a hub. The laptops have to hook into the hub and get DHCP from the desktop and the whole intarweb thing works wonderfully. They also get samba from from the desktop to access files. Now, my inclination is to simply (somehow) replace the hub with the wireless router, but vague memories of CS 460 that are coming back to me as I look at the configuration options of this router are telling that's not quite as straightforward as it sounds.
