Network Dongle

TriedandTested · 24 Nov 2009 at 11:01

Hi,

Can anyone help me find (or give me the right name) for a network dongle that will plug in to a rj45 (standard network port - I think that's what they are called) connection and make it wireless?

It's for a piece of hardware that isn't wireless but has a network port. The location it is to be used in has wireless but not wired connection.

I dont think there is such a thing available on the market.

Any sort of hub that could be set up along side the hardware that a wired connection could come from? i.e. the hub extends the wireless signal and feeds the device via a wired connection?

Much like the Apple Airport Express. In fact, could that do it?

You mean a wireless bridge? There are several on the bay right now or this:

That's the sort of thing, yes. Much like the Airport Express.

Thanks for the link.

Are these things reasonably stable?
