[LUG] Extending wireless range

 

Hi all

Can I ask which is the best (using a spare wireless card) approach to
extending the wireless range of my setup.

I have a Linux PC in the Tearoom which is wired (10/100) to my ADSL
Router

The router is wireless but the signal is weak.  I have a spare Wireless
NW Card which I could fit in the PC and then "Bridge" to the wired to
achieve wireless for my Tearoom guests.

Should I be looking at creating an "Access Point" or just setting up a
"Bridge" what do you think?


Regards
