You did a great job giving a great answer.

I only have one question. What is the problem with having a $100 wireless router plus a web server? I want to set up a web server to a D-link wireless router, that just serves webpages. I want the router to just be a router, so that I can hook up a few computers (1 wired webserver upstairs, 1 wireless downstairs, 1 wired workstation upstairs).

I need the wireless because it will cost me a ton of money for the wire to get it that far, and since I'll have it, why not use it?

Is there a reason why I shouldn't use a stand alone router?

Or better yet is there a benefit to using the linux box to be the router?
