Hi there,<br />
<br />
I'm exhibiting at a trade show that provides wireless access to the internet to the booths.<br />
<br />
I have equipment in the booth on a wired network, only 2-3 hosts.<br />
<br />
Two of these hosts are laptops that are able to connect to the internet via the provided wireless, one Mac OSX Mavericks, the other Windows 8 Professional.<br />
<br />
What I need to be able to do is to have the physical devices communicate with one another on the wired network, but somehow allow them to use the wireless network as a gateway.<br />
<br />
I can set the IP addresses of the wired network to whatever will allow them to work (to avoid IP address clashes), and am able to use whichever laptop is best to share the internet connection.<br />
<br />
Any advice would be fantastic!<br />
<br />
Many thanks

Internet connection from wired network connected to a switch - via wireless hotspot

Wireless networking is anything related to the transfer of data between two (or more) devices without the use of a physical connection, ranging from getting advice on a new Bluetooth headset to configuring sophisticated enterprise level networks.

Wireless Networking

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
