take my advice: for the cost of a good switch, you can buy a Linksys
WRT54G wireless router, which does the entire job and much more (DNS,
DHCP etc), is easy to set up, and is so powerful that you can run linux
on it as well! there are entire sites dedicated to flashing bigger and
badder features on this thing. and they're so cheap! these things have
definitely stolen the routing job from linux boxes in the last few years.
