582017 2007-08-17 22:02:00 I have a Dynalink ADSL modem/router, with four ethernet ports, which is great for the two pcs in my computer room, which are connected via ethernet to the router. Is there some kind of adapter I can plug into the ADSL router to give it wireless connectivity as well? I figured it would plug into one of the spare ethernet ports on the ADSL router, but I'm not sure what such a device would be called, and where to find one.

Any ideas?
