I've searched high and low, and either it's not here (or on Google, which I highly doubt in either instance) or I'm just not using the right terminology in searching for this....

I was reading on another website about setting up a WAP outside of your LAN so that other stumblers or mobile users could get internet access from you. I have the Linksys BEFSR11 inside my apartment and the BEFW11S4 on my balcony and I would like to set it up so that anyone can get online from the wireless router but not access any computers on the wired network inside. I assume I would be using the BEFSR11 as a firewall to the LAN, but I'm not sure how I proplerly setup the two routers to accomplish this.

Any help is appreciated, and maybe someone in S. FLA will find the AP when it's setup right and let me know!
