That starts to get a bit spendy. I knew there had to be some access points
that can go from wireless to wired, I just didn't know what models to look
for. You think the morons at Best Buy would have any idea?

I have no idea - I am European :)

Is the technical term for it "Wireless Bridge?"

I suggested the USB-net solution as it is simple and quite likely to work since many people use that. If you get into stuff which is less used it gets more technical and/or pricey.

but it is $100.
