Ok, I've looked through this forum regarding wireless networking and I still have some questions. First, is an access point or router absolutely necessary in a wireless network? Can't you just use 2 wireless adapters and set one up as the access point? Also, why would you need a wireless router? Couldn't you just set up WinXP's Internet Connection Sharing or a software router on the PC that has the cable or dsl line coming in? In short, is it possible to set up a wireless network using only 2 wireless adapters and doing the rest in software? I would appreciate any input on this. Thanks.
