[CUBE] Somewhat OT: Airport questions

[Hal]

Does anyone know if you set up a Airport Extreme base station as a 
"relay" station, whether you can connect another computer to the extra 
LAN port on the base and have it share the wireless connection? I think 
this should work, but am wondering if anyone's tried it.

Thanks in advance.
