    NAS configuration?

    Hi folks, Back to mooch some network help again. A year ago, I got some advice on how to 'share' a satelite net connection over a 700 foot distance between 2 separate firewalled networks. I was a network rookie then and still am today, however, a year later and the wireless bridge that I'm...

    OK, I'll start with the statement that I'm VERY NEW to wireless network set-up. I've used wireless as a 'consumer' lots of times, but never built a network, but now we're trying to find a solution to our issues. We'd planned to build a small office network around a satellite system as the...
