Exactly! For the price of an Ethernet card, it seems that it would be even
cheaper to go this way. If the original poster has only his desktop
computer, he wouldn't need anything except an Ethernet crossover cable,
beside the Ethernet card for the 2100. Not even considering the additional
speed for the connection... Seems like a no brainer to me!
