Folks,

I need some help figuring out how to accomplish what I need to accomplish. Basically, I need to use a wireless connection to bridge a gap between two wired networked. On oneside of the gap is the gateway to the internet and a computer, on the otheside are more computers. Both sides of the gap are ethernet LANs. Visually, I want



Internet --- LAN --0 wireless 0-- LAN

One other requirement is that the remote LAN will need to get its internet access from the connected LAN (via the wreless connection). What is the right equipment to do this? I have a single (first generation) Airport hub right now. Will that, in conjunction with another airport hub, bridge the gap between the two LANs? Any alternatives?

TIA!
