Neither are showing anything in their logs :( but when I look at the connected devices on the Router (Linksys WRT54G) I can see the mac address of the WL-HDD appearing and dissapearing over and over again so I can only assume its connecting and disconnecting but when I look at the wireless status on the WL-HDD it says its connected to the correct SSID and shows the signal strength but the packet count stays at 0.

WL-HDD arrived today! Nice little device :) Connects as a client to my wireless network and shares the internal drive and/or an external USB key as a standard network share.

Isn't WIFI going to be quite slow for what you want? I use WIFI to back my laptop up, and when I'm working off of the LAN it gets painfully slow!

(mini) ITX System + WiFi Dongle? I think Asus makes a router that you can install a harddrive, isn't cheap though.

edit - yup, Asus WL-700gE

I'm looking for suggestions for WIFI bridges with built in hard-drives.

I've seen the Routers/Bridges with USB plugs and the WIFI USB dongles but I'm after an all in one solution.

Basically I want to hide away a single WIFI storage device (not in the house) so that I can use for backing up data so that I can access it from all PC's on my network and if my computer was to get stolen or my house burns down i'd have a backup.
