More than 1 wireless connection... is it possible?
Am thinking of buying a wireless ADSL modem/router etc (Netgear DG834G) and despite reading all the blurb several times I can't figure out if I can connect more than one laptop to the router using the wireless connection.
Obviously I realise that I would need a wireless network card in each but is it possible or is the wireless function a single connection for a single pc?

you should have no problems connecting 250 devices to a single wireless unit, although things do get very congested at that point

I've got the Linksys version (WAG54G) and have 3 machines connected wirelessly.
Two windoze machines and even my Linux box!
Mind you I had to play about with positioning. It was going to go under the stairs where the phone line comes in but didn't get a very strong signal upstairs in my office. Put it in the loft directly overhead and all is well ...
So, yes. Definitely more than one device!
