said by kittyzmom2:Thanks for the suggestion. Will any brand 802.11n WAP work pretty much the same way...just plug into a spare port? I've never used one of them. Sounds much simpler than what I thought I had to do (and cheaper!)
There is a wide variations in actual performance between different manufactures "N" products, in your case stay with something that's proven, the TEW-637AP is very widely used and has been reported as a top performer
The only thing you will need to do is enable encryption and set a pass-code, a true AP is the simplest of all to setup
