I want to network 2 wired desktops with a wireless laptop.
My desktops are wired with a Linksys BEFSR41 router 4 port switch.
My Wireless router is a Belkin F5D7230-4 4 port switch.
I was considering using both routers.... but now I am not sure because my Belkin manual says that if I use the Belkin's "Access Point Mode" to hook up to another router, that it will defeat the NAT IP sharing feature. What exactly does that mean? Would it mean that I can't share internet, files, printers, or what?
I would like to share internet AND files between all 3 computers.
Is it "better" using 1 router or 2 routers as far as ease of setup, speed, etc.
Anything you can tell me about advantages & disadvantages is appreciated.
