What if I move the switch between the wireless bridge and this computer

the internet and between boxes via Samba. Before embarking on that
effort I would like more knowledgeable comment however. I'm probably
getting in over my head but I usually manage to muddle through such
things eventually if they can be done.
You could do that and it would probably work. I personally prefer to
have my Windows boxes behind a Linux firewall, which is why I go for the
two-interface approach.
Ok, that will be my next project.
