Great! OK I am encouraged to give it a try. But hardware-wise I will need
to NICs and plug my modem line into one NIC and then the other NIC will be
used to connect the Dlink router. I figure the Dlink router essentially
becomes redundant but it is a wireless machine so I would like to use it
anyway.

Is my thinking correct here?

Thank you!
