Mobility Site - View Single Post - 802.11b access point plugs into RJ-45?

I am wanting to use my Axim X5 with wireless card at my college. Some professors get angry when you get on the Internet during class. This way, I could get online without them even knowing it. And I could even get on AIM! (Yes, the school has gone as far as to remove the Java VM so that AIM Express won't run).

Essentially, I want a discreet (doesn't have to be tiny) AP to plug into the switch. I suppose I could even unplug the ethernet from the computer and plug it into the AP.

I would just get a CF LAN card, but it would be pretty obvious what I was doing if I had a CAT5 cable running to my PPC ;) Thanks for your help!
