Equipment Question

[lynchdog]

I was wondering what hardware to buy to make this setup work.

Details:

- A Dlink wireless router connect to a broadband modem in the living room (Used for my laptop and my desktop in the next room over.)

What piece of hardware do I have to get for the garage that will allow me to connect my 3 wired computers (currently connected to a switch) to the wireless network through out the rest of the house.

Any help is appreciated.

You need a wireless bridge.

See Froogle shopping search - expect to pay about $70

Or, a Linksys, Buffalo or Cisco router at each end that supports WDS.
