    Hi,
    I'm looking into buying sometype of wireless yoke(router/bridge/switch/?), than I can use, so that I can share files over a LAN, and also print off documents.

    My current set-up is a Netopia 3347W, linked to a PC(physical wire), with 3 laptop's(each with a wireless nic) able to connect to the internet, through the router. But they can't access too each other, or the printer(connected to the main PC, via USB), wireless'ly.

    I know how to set up a LAN, etc, with cables, but I don't know what type of wireless yoke(router/bridge/switch/?), that I need to buy.

    The 2 main things I need it to do are
    • Ability for multiple users to print off a connected printer, either through the PC, or through a USB port on the wireless yoke.
    • Ability to connect to the other PC's. Needed for general file swapping.

    =-=

    Any help would be nice.
