I am trying to set up a wireless network with a Mac (OSX 10.2) a Windows XP and a Windows 98. I want to be able to share a cable modem connection which allows only 1 IP address at a time, but also files and printers, and a TV tuner thats in one computer, and a DVD player thats in a different one, and MP3's. I have been reading a lot of reviews trying to learn about this but I am clueless--- a lot of the reviews I have read say that various Linksys and NetGear products won't share files, etc. wirelessly, and that is basically the reason I want to do this. I also don't really understand the difference between an Access Point and a router, do I need both? I am clueless about this, please tell me what I need to buy and recomend what brand I need because I am scared to buy something that won't work, and I don't know what I am doing!! :?:
