Is this SBS Standard or Premium? If it's Premium, I would not use a device
outside of ISA to provide LAN access. If you're using the router as the
firewall device, without ISA, then you can use a combination wireless device
such as a Sonicwall. I'd be reluctant to use a low-priced NAT device in
this way.
What I think would be the best practice: get a good quality non-wireless
firewall that you're comfortable with. Get a separate WAP and install it
with these instructions. This will give you the appropriate security for
both the perimeter and the internal wireless network.

Hi all,
Is it possible to use the wireless access from a router/firewall between
the
SBS external NIC and the cable modem for access to the internal network?
I need to get a new router/firewall to put between the SBS and the cable
modem b/c VPN isn't working through the current one. I'd also like to
replace
the WAP we've been using because it doesn't have the gratest security (it
currently connects by cat5 to the switch on the internal network). Could
all
of this be accomplished with one device (like the Linksys WRT54gL)? Or do
I
need to buy a new router/firewall (Dlink di804hv ?) and then add the WAP
to
the switch on the inside (still go with the Linksys)?
Thanks,
Ari
