Hi all. I have a quick (and probably very basic) question. I have a Netgear ME102 wireless access point. Is there anyway in which I can format this point to ‘act’ as a wireless PCI card? By this I mean if I connect this access point to a desktop pc, can this pc be accessed on the home wireless network? Thanks in advance

That's what a access point is for.
When networking wirelessly you options that I know of are
PCMCIA wireless card PCI wireless card USB or ethernet wireless access point Ethernet wireless bridge A wireless router & their's a new one out that's tiny and plugs into your usb but I can't think of the name for them.
You will need two forms of wireless adaptors to make a wireless network.
