I need a wireless adaptor that plugs into the computers ethernet port, then it sends and recieves wirelessly from the router. Is there such a thing and where can I find it? I have looked at the Wireless LAN USB Adaptors, but I was hoping to use the ethernet port.

Thanks for your time.

Format cells as time
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+2 to format cells as time. (Shift 2 is the @ sign).
Far as I know this does not exist... it would be pointless to connect two devices together that do the same thing

Just get a wireless PCI card , or , a wireless USB adaptor

Actually you could use a wireless bridge to do the trick... check out motorola or lynksys wireless bridges. Anyways basically you'd connect the bridge and make it talk with your wireless network, then make your computer talk with the bridge (all talking done using TCP/IP of course). let me know if you you need more info

Yes, turn it into a bridge, or an Access Point. But that would seem a waste of AP's to me. I'd personally go with the wireless USB adapter. I have one at home and it works well. I think whatever I used would depend on the surroundings, the machine (pc/laptop) and network variables.
