Apologies if this is an utterly noob question, I've looked through the FAQ and used Search but I can't quite get the answer to my question.
I currently have a Ethernet cable plugged into the back of my PC pumping glorious internets into my computer.
Is it possible to transmit a wifi signal from my PC via a PCI-E wireless card for my other devices (Macbook, iPad, phone, etc) to use? Is this what a "Gateway" is? Do I need some fancy software to enable this?
Or should I purchase another router and plug the ethernet cable into that, and just connect the devices via wifi off the second router?
Thanks in advance.
