I am trying to achieve a set-up looking like this:
1. Use my ISP's wireless router (have to due to firewall/e-mail restrictions) for wirelessly connecting to the Internet; and
2. SIMULTANEOUSLY be hooked up to the TC wirelessly.
I'm planning on using the TC as a drive to store my iTunes library and other stuff. So, when I'm hooked up to the TC (having loaded the iTunes library stored on the TC) I would like at the same time be able to access the Interent through my ISP's wireless router to download songs to the iTunes library.
Well, if you wired the TC into the router, and turned off DHCP on it, they would both be in the same local subnet. That should work, so give it a shot.
You can't connect to two wifi networks at the same time unless you install another wifi adapter (probably USB) and I don't know how well OS X would handle that.
I don't understand how "firewall/e-mail restrictions" require you to be connected to the ISP's box, but the TC in bridge mode should be mostly transparent.
