Wireless Router vs Wireless Access Point
I currently have two computers (Slack 9.1 on one, Mandrake 10 on the other) that are networked together with a Billion ADSL router. They share files and printers, as well as our broadband internet connection as I require.
I intend to buy 2 Apple iBook laptops, both of which are equiped with and AirPort Extreme card (802.11g standard). I would like to network these two computers wirelessly to my two desktops, so they can share the printers and access files, etc.
Do I need to buy a Wireless Router (Such as a DLink DI-624) or a Wireless Access Point (Such as a DLink DWL-2000AP, which is slighly cheaper)?
Thanks in advance
