Sorta-new-question here... my ISP is offering a wireless setup, and my
mom prefers that because it will let us avoid drilling holes. The only
setup I know for this is with an external router... some questions:

- Are there any problems with wireless NICs and Linux? Will they be
  configured any differently from ordinary NICs, short of building new
  kernel modules? I am aware that many wireless routers have additional
  Ethernet ports, but I don't know exactly what I'm getting yet.

- Is it possible to set up a PC as a wireless router? This is undesired,
  since I'll have to leave it on for the other computer to have a
  connection, but it might be what my ISP is offering. If so, are there
  any special Linux-related problems? Is the configuration any
  different?
