This is a good idea. I have a superfluous router which is dd-wrt compatible and I'll ask David to look into it. This is a project which I'm hoping he'll be able to complete by himself; it will help give him the confidence he needs to move further into open source and Linux. I did (a few weeks ago) try to found a router which would do it "out of the box", and what I thought was extensive Googling didn't find me anything. Does anyone have any specific suggestions? Any pointers to dd-wrt having the ability? I'm sure he can use his laptop to do it; I know that connection sharing is built into MS Windows and I'm sure it can be done in Ubuntu easily enough, but again, I can't find it <frown>, and I'd like David to be able to do the work himself. Any suggestions/leads from anyone towards anything specific would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
