Would it be realistic to turn DSL into a cable modem router to wireless?  I'm sure it's possible, but is the work greater than just purchasing a wireless router?  I would also like to run a file server from the same setup.  I'm kind of not interested in doing it if I've got to download many patches or if I have to modify a kernel.  Just wondering of the feasibility.

Thanks

Yes, it's possible, and it's easier to get a file server with DSL than a router

Just get a suitable wireless card, ie one that can act as an AP
