If you point me to one I will drop the newbie questions.. I hope that a
Mac-friendly company exists that provides these? Maybe it doesn't matter
what hardware you have, being a router - sounds like some configuartion is
needed.. (too often by a PC, which I won't have anytime soon ;-)
I have no idear what a WAPS/router is - but $40 is totally affordable if you
think it's what I am looking for.
