Want To use linux as a router/gateway


Ok so heres what I need, its kinda specific so if someone would like to inform me it would be greatly appreciated ,

I have a machine, a toshiba libretto 70ct with these network cards :

Lucent Orinoco Silver WiFi card
Xircom Credit card ethernet

I want to set up the machine so i can connect the wifi to my wireless router downstairs and have it issue IP addresses out over the ethernet as an internet gateway, so basically a wireless to cable bridge, where the bridge issues IP addresses

the next issue is that it also has to do dns redirection, theres a specific URL that does exist on the internet that i want redirected to a page stored on another machine (instead of say doubleclick.net and other ad servers redirect to a page that closes the window)

how can i do this ???
