question on pc 2 psp wireless network
 
Currently I have a wired BEFSR41 router and connected my main rig, laptop and 360 all with ethernet. My main rig and lappy also have wireless cards which are obviously not in use yet.

Is there a way I could connect my psp to one of the wireless cards or am I going to have a get a wireless router.

Sly... :)

Looking at your setup, the "nicest" solution would be a Wireless Router and you could always eBay the old Wired router to raise some cash for it but they're not that expensive these days anyway. I don't think you'd regret it to be honest.

Yeah I was looking at the Linksys WRT54GS but then I would have to spend even more cash on the 360 wireless network adaptor wouldnt I ?

You could just leave it wired.

And most wireless cards allow them to become access points, you could connect to one, then use ICS and connect to the internet that way.

Wait - so I could have my main rig and my 360 wired and my lappy, 2nd rig and psp wireless at the same time. ?

Of course, that's whay wireless routers allow for most of the time. the WRT54GS has 4 ports for normal LAN too ;) as well as an uplink port to connect to the modem.

Of course it does, that's it's job :) Wireless router, with built in LAN ports, uplink to modem... You can connect wireless to it and connect to the net and to the ionternal PC's as well.

Tis the all in one solution, and it's bloody good.
