I'm a lurker around here, and I learn much doing it. This might be a bit off topic, but here goes .... I want to use a laptop in my computer room to learn how to do some of the cool DCC stuff with it. I' m not up on the latest computer/networking gear. We have a regular router (that uses ethernet cable) hooked up to our cable modem. It would be a pain to run a cable to the train room's laptop. Is there a "wireless ethernet connector" I could use? I plug a gizmo into an empty port on my router, and that gizmo would send the wireless signal to a gizmo in my train room? Is there such a beast? Or are my only options either running that cable to the train room or starting over with a wireless router? Thanks. This forum is such a great source of info for someone like me ....new to it all.
