I have 4 computers on home network wired to a D-Link 4-port router. I
bought a D-Link wireless router which I want to connect to the wired
network so that I can use a laptop around the house. I have assigned
192.168.0.1 to one computer on my home network which is the gateway
computer for a dialup Internet connection (I use ICS as well, and yes it
is slow when a couple of people are surfing). All other computers have
various IP addresses.

The wireless router and the wireless card are "b" format.

The wireless router is likely a default IP of 192.168.0.1, so I would
have to change it to something different than the other computers on the
network, I think. Can I use the wireless router as an access point?
Otherwise how do I set up my network?

BTW, I know pretty much squat about this stuff so please make it simple.
