I need to setup a wireless access point and this is what it needs to do
Network cable from satellite modem to the access point. 1 PC and 2 laptops need to gain access to the internet via this access point with a rather generous coverage area.
I am considering the NetGear WPN802 RangeMax Wireless Access Point. Will this actually do the job, obviously the PC needs a wireless card in it so looking at WG311 Wireless PCI Card.
