I ended up buying a small, used, 486 laptop and putting one pcmcia ether card and one wavelan card in it. I havn't set it up as a bridge yet - I was under the impression that FreeBSD's bridging code wasn't up to stuff/there for all drivers - so just use it as a router in ad hoc mode. The other advantage of the airports/etc is you don't have to use ad hoc.
