Subject: [OS2Wireless] wifi on desktop?

Hello Julian,

I don't understand what a bridge is and what it does. Do you mean I could connect a desktop equipped with a PCI (wired) adapter to a wifi network by using a bridge? Could you give an example of a bridge and of the required driver?
TIA
mg
