Hmm... depending on your model, you could consider installing a Linux
firmware on it. Yes, Linux! Then, you can have everything you need on
the AP, forwarding NFS X and things alike to the ethernet server.
One detail regarding wireless devices is that I don't know, until now,
any device with PXE or etherboot enabled. So, you would have to build
an initrd of your own, loading the driver and then asking an IP in
this interface and doing all the stuff.
I know quite a few network devices use Linux. I have a Buffalo LinkStation
that runs Linux and I know that it is possible to install Debian on it.
Do you know which APs it is possible to install Linux on. I am sure I could
persuade my employer to add to my collection of APs for the sake of a bit
of "research" (ie playing around).
