I have my home computers on a wired network (nothing fancy, just Windows XP
Pro on two machines and OSX on my Mac) sharing a cable modem and a printer. I
want to share the Internet connection with someone upstairs, without giving
them access to any of the computers or the printer. A wireless LAN would be
ideal, as it would save me the trouble of running cable. Can I have two LANs
(Wired and Wireless) sharing the cable modem?
If so, how do I set it up? To free up space, I'd have to run a hub from one
of my router connections, then (I assume) attach some sort of wirless hub to
that. Is this correct?
Assuming I get all that working, can I keep the two workgroups separate, so
that the machine on the wireless LAN does not see or have access to my wired
workgroup?
