I have a wired ethernet network with 7 compugers using a
linksys router. Call it Network "A". Can I plug the
basestation from a MS Wireless Notebook Kit into the
router and use it as a wireless access point into
Network "A". In other words I need notebook with the
wireless card to be part of the wired Network "A". Also,
the wired Network "A" shares an internet connection via
the linksys router. Will the wireless notebook be able
to share in this connection as well?
