wireless cabling?

I have a router downstairs and a computer that needs access to it upstairs. Could I cable in hub into an AirPort Express upstairs and have it connect to another AirPort express downstairs that connects to the router? I should just stick a wireless card in the upstairs box shouldn’t I, why did I only think of that as I type this. Anyone recommend a wireless card to go in a Dell server running Linux (WPA 802.11g network)?

I other news, work looks bleak.

    Get some ethernet over power line doobers. We have them and they work rather nicly, even with one of them being plugged into a 4 way.

    Which ones do you have? Also, what is to stop neighbours connecting?

    Guessing there’s some key protection, plus your closest neighbours will be on seperate phases.

    I’ve not done it, but it looks easy enough to do, I’m still half-heartedly considering it to pipe music into the kitchen.
