Yeah. See, if you get top-of-the-line wifi bridges (ie. various high-power
Cisco models designed for non-ad-hoc bridging), it's a different story. But
if you only have consumer bridges, you're in the same position as anyone
with two wifi laptops, say. So, definitely get an access point and run a
managed network.
