I currently have a laptop that gets its IP
address on the wired
ethernet using DHCP. I will like to be able to
do access this wired
ethernet remotely -- without physically plugging it
into the ethernet
jack everytime. An access point will work, but it
will need an IP
address of its own, in addition to making itself
available to others.
I looked at wireless-to-ethernet bridges, and all that
I could find
require an IP address as well.
Conceptually, all I am looking for is an extended
long cable, except
just that I want to have it wireless. I don't
want to change any
configuration -- like that required to support DHCP
for the WAP etc,
nor do I want to make any device I may add
available or visible to
others. The packets should ideally just be forwarded
from the ethernet
connection to my wireless card, and vice-versa.
Does anyone have any advice on any specific bridge
or device which may
do this? Or any way I can do this?

Would some thing like this plugin mains unit be
what you are after, i think you just plug it
in and plug the network cable in to it..
